[patch 20/29] netfilter: arpt_mangle: fix return values of checkentry

[Greg KH]

2.6.37-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9d0db8b6b1da9e3d4c696ef29449700c58d589db upstream.

In 135367b "netfilter: xtables: change xt_target.checkentry return type",
the type returned by checkentry was changed from boolean to int, but the
return values where not adjusted.

arptables: Input/output error

This broke arptables with the mangle target since it returns true
under success, which is interpreted by xtables as >0, thus
returning EIO.
