Subject: [NET]: Avoid unnecessary cloning for ingress filtering
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f697c3e8b35c18b2698d64137c0fa84b0cdb3d10;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

[NET]: Avoid unnecessary cloning for ingress filtering

As it is we always invoke pt_prev before ing_filter, even if there are no
ingress filters attached.  This can cause unnecessary cloning in pt_prev.

This patch changes it so that we only invoke pt_prev if there are ingress
filters attached.
