iptables/nftables has two types of log modules:
1. backend, e.g. nf_log_syslog, which implement the functionality
2. frontend, e.g. xt_LOG or nft_log, which call the functionality
provided by backend based on nf_tables or xtables rule set.
Problem is that the request_module() call to load the backed in
nf_logger_find_get() might happen with nftables transaction mutex held
in case the call path is via nf_tables/nft_compat.
This can cause deadlocks (see 'Fixes' tags for details).
The chosen solution as to let modprobe deal with this by adding 'pre: '
soft dep tag to xt_LOG (to load the syslog backend) and xt_NFLOG (to
load nflog backend).
Eric reports that this breaks on systems with older modprobe that
doesn't support softdeps.
Another, similar issue occurs when someone either insmods xt_(NF)LOG
directly or unloads the backend module (possible if no log frontend
is in use): because the frontend module is already loaded, modprobe is
not invoked again so the softdep isn't evaluated.
Add a workaround: If nf_logger_find_get() returns -ENOENT and call
is not via nft_compat, load the backend explicitly and try again.
Else, let nft_compat ask for deferred request_module via nf_tables
infra.
Softdeps are kept in-place, so with newer modprobe the dependencies
are resolved from userspace.

xt_LOG has no direct dependency on the syslog-based logger, it relies
on the nf_log core to probe the requested backend.
Now that all syslog-based loggers reside in the same module, we can
just add a soft dependency on nf_log_syslog and let modprobe take
care of it.

Justin and Chris spotted that iptables NFLOG target was broken when they
upgraded the kernel to 4.8: "ulogd-2.0.5- IPs are no longer logged" or
"results in segfaults in ulogd-2.0.5".
Because "struct nf_loginfo li;" is a local variable, and flags will be
filled with garbage value, not inited to zero. So if it contains 0x1,
packets will not be logged to the userspace anymore.

li->u.ulog.copy_len is currently ignored by the kernel, we should truncate
the packet to either li->u.ulog.copy_len (if set) or copy_range before
sending it to userspace. 0 is a valid input for copy_len, so add a new
flag to indicate whether this was option was specified by the user or not.
Add two flags to indicate whether nflog-size/copy_len was set or not.
XT_NFLOG_F_COPY_LEN is for XT_NFLOG and NFLOG_F_COPY_LEN for nfnetlink_log
On the userspace side, this was initially represented by the option
nflog-range, this will be replaced by --nflog-size now. --nflog-range would
still exist but does not do anything.

Adding struct net *net in call to nf_logfn() will secure that
there always is a vaild net ptr.

This patch modifies xt_NFLOG to suppress the call to nf_log_packet()
function. The call of this wrapper in xt_NFLOG was causing NFLOG to
use the first initialized module. Thus, if ipt_ULOG is loaded before
nfnetlink_log all NFLOG rules are treated as plain LOG rules.

Add new NFLOG target to allow use of nfnetlink_log for both IPv4 and IPv6.
Currently we have two (unsupported by userspace) hacks in the LOG and ULOG
targets to optionally call to the nflog API. They lack a few features,
namely the IPv4 and IPv6 LOG targets can not specify a number of arguments
related to nfnetlink_log, while the ULOG target is only available for IPv4.
Remove those hacks and add a clean way to use nfnetlink_log.
