File iptables-1.8.2-dont_read_garbage.patch of Package iptables

From: Fabian Vogt <fvogt@suse.com>

Subject: 'iptables -L' reads garbage
References: [bsc#1106751]
Upstream: reported (https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1331)

This patch fixes a situation where 'iptables -L' reads garbage
from the struct as the kernel never filled it in the bugged case.
This can lead to issues like mapping a few TiB of memory
