Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next, they are:
1) Release nf_tables objects on netns destructions via
nft_release_afinfo().
2) Destroy basechain and rules on netdevice removal in the new netdev
family.
3) Get rid of defensive check against removal of inactive objects in
nf_tables.
4) Pass down netns pointer to our existing nfnetlink callbacks, as well
as commit() and abort() nfnetlink callbacks.
5) Allow to invert limit expression in nf_tables, so we can throttle
overlimit traffic.
6) Add packet duplication for the netdev family.
7) Add forward expression for the netdev family.
8) Define pr_fmt() in conntrack helpers.
9) Don't leave nfqueue configuration on inconsistent state in case of
errors, from Ken-ichirou MATSUZAWA, follow up patches are also from
him.
10) Skip queue option handling after unbind.
11) Return error on unknown both in nfqueue and nflog command.
12) Autoload ctnetlink when NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK is set.
13) Add new NFTA_SET_USERDATA attribute to store user data in sets,
from Carlos Falgueras.
14) Add support for 64 bit byteordering changes nf_tables, from Florian
Westphal.
15) Add conntrack byte/packet counter matching support to nf_tables,
also from Florian.

If the netdevice is destroyed, the resources that are attached should
be released too as they belong to the device that is now gone.

We have to release the existing objects on netns removal otherwise we
leak them. Chains are unregistered in first place to make sure no
packets are walking on our rules and sets anymore.
The object release happens by when we unregister the family via
nft_release_afinfo() which is called from nft_unregister_afinfo() from
the corresponding __net_exit path in every family.

Only pass the void *priv parameter out of the nf_hook_ops. That is
all any of the functions are interested now, and by limiting what is
passed it becomes simpler to change implementation details.

- Add nft_pktinfo.pf to replace ops->pf
- Add nft_pktinfo.hook to replace ops->hooknum
This simplifies the code, makes it more readable, and likely reduces
cache line misses. Maintainability is enhanced as the details of
nft_hook_ops are of no concern to the recpients of nft_pktinfo.

In case the net_device is gone, we have to unregister the hooks and put back
the reference on the net_device object. Once it comes back, register them
again. This also covers the device rename case.
This patch also adds a new flag to indicate that the basechain is disabled, so
their hooks are not registered. This flag is used by the netdev family to
handle the case where the net_device object is gone. Currently this flag is not
exposed to userspace.

This allows us to create netdev tables that contain ingress chains. Use
skb_header_pointer() as we may see shared sk_buffs at this stage.
This change provides access to the existing nf_tables features from the ingress
hook.
