netfilter: xtables: fix reentrancy
commit f3c5c1bfd4308 (make ip_tables reentrant) introduced a race in handling the stackptr restore, at the end of ipt_do_table() We should do it before the call to xt_info_rdunlock_bh(), or we allow cpu preemption and another cpu overwrites stackptr of original one. A second fix is to change the underflow test to check the origptr value instead of 0 to detect underflow, or else we allow a jump from different hooks.
