Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

nfmark is being used in various subsystems and has become
the defacto mark field for all kinds of packets. Therefore
it makes sense to rename it to `mark' and remove the
dependency on CONFIG_NETFILTER.

Based on patch by James D. Nurmi:

I've got some code very dependant on nfnetlink_queue, and turned up a
large number of warns coming from skb_trim.  While it's quite possibly
my code, having not seen it on older kernels made me a bit suspect.

Anyhow, based on some googling I turned up this thread:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/13/56

And believe the issue to be related, so attached is a small patch to
the kernel -- not sure if this is completely correct, but for anyone
else hitting the WARN_ON(1) in skbuff.h, it might be helpful..

Every netfilter module uses `init' for its module_init() function and
`fini' or `cleanup' for its module_exit() function.

Problem is, this creates uninformative initcall_debug output and makes
ctags rather useless.

So go through and rename them all to $(filename)_init and
$(filename)_fini.

This patch unconditionally requires CAP_NET_ADMIN for all nfnetlink
messages.  It also removes the per-message cap_required field, since all
existing subsystems use CAP_NET_ADMIN for all their messages anyway.

I've found the problem in general.  It affects any 64-bit
architecture.  The problem occurs when you change the system time.

Suppose that when you boot your system clock is forward by a day.
This gets recorded down in skb_tv_base.  You then wind the clock back
by a day.  From that point onwards the offset will be negative which
essentially overflows the 32-bit variables they're stored in.

In fact, why don't we just store the real time stamp in those 32-bit
variables? After all, we're not going to overflow for quite a while
yet.

When we do overflow, we'll need a better solution of course.

This patch adds a /proc/net/netfilter/nf_queue file, similar to the
recently-added /proc/net/netfilter/nf_log.  It indicates which queue
handler is registered to which protocol family.  This is useful since
there are now multiple queue handlers in the treee (ip[6]_queue,
nfnetlink_queue).

This patch adds support for passing the real 'physical' device ifindex
down to userspace via nfnetlink_log and nfnetlink_queue.

This feature basically obsoletes net/bridge/netfilter/ebt_ulog.c, and
it is likely ebt_ulog.c will die with one of the next couple of
patches.

Prior to this patch, every nfnetlink subsystem had to specify it's
attribute count.  However, in reality the attribute count depends on
the message type within the subsystem, not the subsystem itself.  This
patch moves 'attr_count' from 'struct nfnetlink_subsys' into
nfnl_callback to fix this.
