Root Cause:

After kernel version 3.13.x, the definition of netfilter hook function (nf_hookfn) has been changed.

  /* Largest hook number + 1 */
  #define NF_MAX_HOOKS 8
  
  struct sk_buff;
  
  struct nf_hook_ops;
  typedef unsigned int nf_hookfn(const struct nf_hook_ops *ops,
                                 struct sk_buff *skb,
                                 const struct net_device *in,
                                 const struct net_device *out,
                                 int (*okfn)(struct sk_buff *));
  
  struct nf_hook_ops {
          struct list_head list;
  
          /* User fills in from here down. */
          nf_hookfn       *hook;
          struct module   *owner;
          void            *priv;
          u_int8_t        pf;
          unsigned int    hooknum;
          /* Hooks are ordered in ascending priority. */
          int             priority;
  };
  

Solution:

 Use the following patch to correct this error:
