[BRIDGE] ebtables: fix allocation in net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c
Allocate an array of 'struct ebt_chainstack *', the current code allocates array of 'struct ebt_chainstack'. akpm: converted to use the foo = alloc(sizeof(*foo)) form. Which would have prevented this from happening in the first place. akpm: also removed unneeded typecast. akpm: what on earth is this code doing anyway? cpu_possible_map can be sparse..
