Netfilter fixes for net (v2)
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net:
1) Move back the defrag users fields to the global netns_nf area.
Kernel fails to boot if conntrack is builtin and kernel is booted
with: nf_conntrack.enable_hooks=1. From Florian Westphal.
2) Rule event notification is missing relevant context such as
the position handle and the NLM_F_APPEND flag.
3) Rule replacement is expanded to add + delete using the existing
rule handle, reverse order of this operation so it makes sense
from rule notification standpoint.
4) Propagate to userspace the NLM_F_CREATE and NLM_F_EXCL flags
from the rule notification path.
Patches #2, #3 and #4 are used by 'nft monitor' and 'iptables-monitor'
userspace utilities which are not correctly representing the following
operations through netlink notifications:
- rule insertions
- rule addition/insertion from position handle
- create table/chain/set/map/flowtable/...
