Fernando Fernandez Mancera f359b809d5 netfilter: nft_objref: validate objref and objrefmap expressions
Referencing a synproxy stateful object from OUTPUT hook causes kernel
crash due to infinite recursive calls:

Implement objref and objrefmap expression validate functions.

Currently, only NFT_OBJECT_SYNPROXY object type requires validation.
This will also handle a jump to a chain using a synproxy object from the
OUTPUT hook.

Now when trying to reference a synproxy object in the OUTPUT hook, nft
will produce the following error:

synproxy_crash.nft: Error: Could not process rule: Operation not supported
  synproxy name mysynproxy
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
