Hi,

have the same bug reported on launchpad:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/869068

Basically the bug appears if iptables are set in the container and the
container is shutdown without calling iptables -F flushing the table.

static void __exit recent_mt_exit(void)
{
        BUG_ON(!list_empty(&tables));
        xt_unregister_match(&recent_mt_reg)
...
}

I've no glue about this module or netfilter developing in general, but why the
module won't clean the list here on exit? I know the exit assumes it should be
empty but of course it is not empty as it was not flushed from userland.
