[PATCH net-next] netfilter: arptables: use xt_entry_foreach() in copy_entries_to_user()

From: Kshitiz Bartariya <hidden>
Date: 2026-01-19 06:39:06
Also in: lkml, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Replace the manual offset-based iteration with xt_entry_foreach(),
thereby removing FIXME. The byte offset semantics and user ABI
are preserved.
