[bionic:linux-hwe][PATCH 1/1] netfilter: x_tables: fix compat match/target pad out-of-bound write

From: Florian Westphal <fw at strlen.de>

xt_compat_match/target_from_user doesn't check that zeroing the area
to start of next rule won't write past end of allocated ruleset blob.

Remove this code and zero the entire blob beforehand.
