The value in idx and the number of rules handled in that particular
__nf_tables_dump_rules() call is not identical. The former is a cursor
to pick up from if multiple netlink messages are needed, so its value is
ever increasing. Fixing this is not just a matter of subtracting s_idx
from it, though: When resetting rules in multiple chains,
__nf_tables_dump_rules() is called for each and cb->args[0] is not
adjusted in between. Introduce a dedicated counter to record the number
of rules reset in this call in a less confusing way.
While being at it, prevent the direct return upon buffer exhaustion: Any
rules previously dumped into that skb would evade audit logging
otherwise.

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 Restructured Text 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.
