- Add a new set of functions for registering and unregistering per
  network namespace hooks.

- Modify the old global namespace hook functions to use the per
  network namespace hooks in their implementation, so their remains a
  single list that needs to be walked for any hook (this is important
  for keeping the hook priority working and for keeping the code
  walking the hooks simple).

- Only allow registering the per netdevice hooks in the network
  namespace where the network device lives.

- Dynamically allocate the structures in the per network namespace
  hook list in nf_register_net_hook, and unregister them in
  nf_unregister_net_hook.

  Dynamic allocate is required somewhere as the number of network
  namespaces are not fixed so we might as well allocate them in the
  registration function.

  The chain of registered hooks on any list is expected to be small so
  the cost of walking that list to find the entry we are unregistering
  should also be small.

  Performing the management of the dynamically allocated list entries
  in the registration and unregistration functions keeps the complexity
  from spreading.

<title>netfilter: don't pull include/linux/netfilter.h from netns headers</title>

This pulls the full hook netfilter definitions from all those that include
net_namespace.h.

Instead let's just include the bare minimum required in the new
linux/netfilter_defs.h file, and use it from the netfilter netns header files.

I also needed to include in.h and in6.h from linux/netfilter.h otherwise we hit
this compilation error:

In file included from include/linux/netfilter_defs.h:4:0,
                 from include/net/netns/netfilter.h:4,
                 from include/net/net_namespace.h:22,
                 from include/linux/netdevice.h:43,
                 from net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue_core.c:23:
include/uapi/linux/netfilter.h:76:17: error: field ‘in’ has incomplete type struct in_addr in;

And also explicit include linux/netfilter.h in several spots.

<title>netfilter: use forward declaration instead of including linux/proc_fs.h</title>

We don't need to pull the full definitions in that file, a simple forward
declaration is enough.

Moreover, include linux/procfs.h from nf_synproxy_core, otherwise this hits a
compilation error due to missing declarations, ie.

net/netfilter/nf_synproxy_core.c: In function ‘synproxy_proc_init’:
net/netfilter/nf_synproxy_core.c:326:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘proc_create’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  if (!proc_create("synproxy", S_IRUGO, net-&gt;proc_net_stat,

<title>netfilter: nf_log: prepare net namespace support for loggers</title>

<id>30e0c6a6bee24db0166b7ca709277cd693e179f2</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds netns support to nf_log and it prepares netns
support for existing loggers. It is composed of four major
changes.

1) nf_log_register has been split to two functions: nf_log_register
   and nf_log_set. The new nf_log_register is used to globally
   register the nf_logger and nf_log_set is used for enabling
   pernet support from nf_loggers.

   Per netns is not yet complete after this patch, it comes in
   separate follow up patches.

2) Add net as a parameter of nf_log_bind_pf. Per netns is not
   yet complete after this patch, it only allows to bind the
   nf_logger to the protocol family from init_net and it skips
   other cases.

3) Adapt all nf_log_packet callers to pass netns as parameter.
   After this patch, this function only works for init_net.

4) Make the sysctl net/netfilter/nf_log pernet.

This patch makes this proc dentry pernet. So far only init_net
had a /proc/net/netfilter directory.
