+Subject: [PATCH] tc: fix xtables incorrect usage of LDFLAGS
+
+The incorrect setting of LDFLAGS causes error below:
+
+> em_ipt.o: In function `em_ipt_print_epot':
+> em_ipt.c:(.text.em_ipt_print_epot+0x2e): undefined reference to
+> `xtables_init_all'
+
+em_ipt.c gets involved when TC_CONFIG_XT=y, which requires xtables,
+while tc/Makefile doesn't pass flags correctly. It adds '-lxtables'
+to LDFLAGS instead of LDLIBS.
+
+Fixes: dd296215 ("tc: add em_ipt ematch for calling xtables matches from tc matching context")
