We used to have several queueing backends, but nowadays only
nfnetlink_queue remains.
In light of this there doesn't seem to be a good reason to
support per-af registering -- just hook up nfnetlink_queue on module
load and remove it on unload.
This means that the userspace BIND/UNBIND_PF commands are now obsolete;
the kernel will ignore them.

This patch adds the NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute that allows us to know
what is the real packet size from user-space (even if we decided
to retrieve just a few bytes from the packet instead of all of it).
Security software that inspects packets should always check for
this new attribute to make sure that it is inspecting the entire
packet.
This also helps to provide a workaround for the problem described
in: http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=134519473212536&w=2
Original idea from Florian Westphal.

The packets that we send via NFQUEUE are encapsulated in the NFQA_PAYLOAD
attribute. The length of the packet in userspace is obtained via
attr->nla_len field. This field contains the size of the Netlink
attribute header plus the packet length.
If the maximum packet length is specified, ie. 65535 bytes, and
packets in the range of (65531,65535] are sent to userspace, the
attr->nla_len overflows and it reports bogus lengths to the
application.
To fix this, this patch limits the maximum packet length to 65531
bytes. If larger packet length is specified, the packet that we
send to user-space is truncated to 65531 bytes.
To support 65535 bytes packets, we have to revisit the idea of
the 32-bits Netlink attribute length.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:
====================
The following patchset contains four Netfilter updates, mostly targeting
to fix issues added with IPv6 NAT, and one little IPVS update for net-next:
* Remove unneeded conditional free of skb in nfnetlink_queue, from
Wei Yongjun.
* One semantic path from coccinelle detected the use of list_del +
INIT_LIST_HEAD, instead of list_del_init, again from Wei Yongjun.
* Fix out-of-bound memory access in the NAT address selection, from
Florian Westphal. This was introduced with the IPv6 NAT patches.
* Two fixes for crashes that were introduced in the recently merged
IPv6 NAT support, from myself.

It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a
process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields
that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid.
I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to
userspace to avoid changing the userspace API.
I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change.

In "9cb0176 netfilter: add glue code to integrate nfnetlink_queue and ctnetlink"
the compilation with NF_CONNTRACK disabled is broken. This patch fixes this
issue.
I have moved the conntrack part into nfnetlink_queue_ct.c to avoid
peppering the entire nfnetlink_queue.c code with ifdefs.
I also needed to rename nfnetlink_queue.c to nfnetlink_queue_pkt.c
to update the net/netfilter/Makefile to support conditional compilation
of the conntrack integration.
This patch also adds CONFIG_NETFILTER_QUEUE_CT in case you want to explicitly
disable the integration between nf_conntrack and nfnetlink_queue.
