[ Upstream commit 2035f3ff8eaa29cfb5c8e2160b0f6e85eeb21a95 ]
Unlike ip(6)tables ebtables only counts user-defined chains.
The effect is that a 32bit ebtables binary on a 64bit kernel can do
'ebtables -N FOO' only after adding at least one rule, else the request
fails with -EINVAL.
This is a similar fix as done in
3f1e53abff84 ("netfilter: ebtables: don't attempt to allocate 0-sized compat array").
Fixes: 7d7d7e02111e9 ("netfilter: compat: reject huge allocation requests")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
