I've just had an exception to my "uneventful kernel upgrade" monotony.

My boot scripts failed when setting up the firewall due to this :-

    xt_recent: hitcount (1) is larger than packets to be remembered (1)
for table xxxx

This is a completely straightforward

    iptables -A yyyy -j REJECT -p tcp --reject-with tcp-reset -m recent
--set --name xxxx --rsource

Looking at the history for xt_recent.c it looks like this was introduced
in abc86d0f99242b7f142b7cb8f90e30081dd3c256 but maybe corrected in
cef9ed86ed62eeffcd017882278bbece32001f86 ?

Whatever, 3.19.1 is still affected, it can be worked around by setting
ip_pkt_list_tot in the module parameters.

Cheers
David
