Subject[PATCH] Remove broken netfilter binary sysctls from bridging code
From
The netfilter sysctls in the bridging code don't set strategy routines:

sysctl table check failed: /net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-arptables .3.10.1 Missing strategy
sysctl table check failed: /net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-iptables .3.10.2 Missing strategy
sysctl table check failed: /net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-ip6tables .3.10.3 Missing strategy
sysctl table check failed: /net/bridge/bridge-nf-filter-vlan-tagged .3.10.4 Missing strategy
sysctl table check failed: /net/bridge/bridge-nf-filter-pppoe-tagged .3.10.5 Missing strategy

These binary sysctls can't work. The binary sysctl numbers of
other netfilter sysctls with this problem are being removed. These
need to go as well.

This *really* needs to be reviewed by someone who knows what this
is all about. I've simply extended the removal of netfilter binary
sysctl numbers so I could load bridge.ko. I don't particularly
care if I get attributed for this fix or any of that.

It Works For Me.
