The caller assumes that < 0 means that skb was stolen (or free'd).
All other return values continue skb processing.
nf_hook_slow returns 3 different return value types:
A) a (negative) errno value: the skb was dropped (NF_DROP, e.g.
by iptables '-j DROP' rule).
B) 0. The skb was stolen by the hook or queued to userspace.
C) 1. all hooks returned NF_ACCEPT so the caller should invoke
the okfn so packet processing can continue.
nft ingress facility currently doesn't have the 'okfn' that
the NF_HOOK() macros use; there is no nfqueue support either.
So 1 means that nf_hook_ingress() caller should go on processing the skb.
In order to allow use of NF_STOLEN from ingress we need to translate
this to an errno number, else we'd crash because we continue with
already-free'd (or about to be free-d) skb.
The errno value isn't checked, its just important that its less than 0,
so return -1.

This field is only useful for nf_queue, so store it in the
nf_queue_entry structure instead, away from the core path. Pass
hook_head to nf_hook_slow().
Since we always have a valid entry on the first iteration in
nf_iterate(), we can use 'do { ... } while (entry)' loop instead.

Patch c5136b15ea ("netfilter: bridge: add and use br_nf_hook_thresh")
introduced br_nf_hook_thresh().
Replace NF_HOOK_THRESH() by br_nf_hook_thresh from
br_nf_forward_finish(), so we have no more callers for this macro.
As a result, state->thresh and explicit thresh parameter in the hook
state structure is not required anymore. And we can get rid of
skip-hook-under-thresh loop in nf_iterate() in the core path that is
only used by br_netfilter to search for the filter hook.

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).

This makes things simpler because we can store the head of the list
in the nf_state structure without worrying about concurrent add/delete
of hook elements from the list.
A future commit will make use of this to implement a simpler
linked-list.

The input and output interfaces in nf_hook_state_init() are flipped.
This fixes iif matching on nftables.

nf_hook_list_active() always returns true once at least one device has
NF_INGRESS hook enabled.
Thus, don't use this function. Instead, inverse the test and use the static
key to elide list_empty test if no NF_INGRESS hooks are active.

This patch adds the Netfilter ingress hook just after the existing tc ingress
hook, that seems to be the consensus solution for this.
Note that the Netfilter hook resides under the global static key that enables
ingress filtering. Nonetheless, Netfilter still also has its own static key for
minimal impact on the existing handle_ing().

Note that the results are very similar before and after.
I can see gcc gets the code under the ingress static key out of the hot path.
Then, on that cold branch, it generates the code to accomodate the netfilter
ingress static key. My explanation for this is that this reduces the pressure
on the instruction cache for non-users as the new code is out of the hot path,
and it comes with minimal impact for tc ingress users.
