netfilter: nft_compat: fix error path in nft_parse_compat()
The patch 0ca743a5: "netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tables", leads to the following Smatch warning: "net/netfilter/nft_compat.c:140 nft_parse_compat() warn: signedness bug returning '(-34)'" This nft_parse_compat function returns error codes but the return type is u8 so the error codes are transformed into small positive values. The callers don't check the return. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
