nf_iterate() has become rather simple, we can integrate this code into
nf_hook_slow() to reduce the amount of LOC in the core path.
However, we still need nf_iterate() around for nf_queue packet handling,
so move this function there where we only need it. I think it should be
possible to refactor nf_queue code to get rid of it definitely, but
given this is slow path anyway, let's have a look this later.

nf_queue handling is broken since e3b37f11e6 ("netfilter: replace
list_head with single linked list") for two reasons:
1) If the bypass flag is set on, there are no userspace listeners and
we still have more hook entries to iterate over, then jump to the
next hook. Otherwise accept the packet. On nf_reinject() path, the
okfn() needs to be invoked.
2) We should not re-enter the same hook on packet reinjection. If the
packet is accepted, we have to skip the current hook from where the
packet was enqueued, otherwise the packets gets enqueued over and
over again.
This restores the previous list_for_each_entry_continue() behaviour
happening from nf_iterate() that was dealing with these two cases.
This patch introduces a new nf_queue() wrapper function so this fix
becomes simpler.

The netfilter hook list never uses the prev pointer, and so can be trimmed to
be a simple singly-linked list.
In addition to having a more light weight structure for hook traversal,
struct net becomes 5568 bytes (down from 6400) and struct net_device becomes
2176 bytes (down from 2240).

Instead of passing a large number of arguments down into the nf_hook()
entry points, create a structure which carries this state down through
the hook processing layers.
This makes is so that if we want to change the types or signatures of
any of these pieces of state, there are less places that need to be
changed.

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Since 'list_for_each_continue_rcu' has already been replaced by
'list_for_each_entry_continue_rcu', pass 'list_head' to nf_queue() as a
parameter can not benefit us any more.
This patch will replace 'list_head' with 'nf_hook_ops' as the parameter of
nf_queue() and __nf_queue() to save code.

This patch doesn't introduce any code changes, but merely splits the
core netfilter code into four separate files. It also moves it from
it's old location in net/core/ to the recently-created net/netfilter/
directory.
