Fix kernel panic on various SMP machines. The culprit is a null
ub->skb in ulog_send(). If ulog_timer() has already been scheduled on
one CPU and is spinning on the lock, and ipt_ulog_packet() flushes the
queue on another CPU by calling ulog_send() right before it exits,
there will be no skbuff when ulog_timer() acquires the lock and calls
ulog_send(). Cancelling the timer in ulog_send() doesn't help because
it has already been scheduled and is running on the first CPU.
Similar problem exists in ebt_ulog.c and nfnetlink_log.c.

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.

The skb allocated is always of size nlbufsize, even if that is smaller than
the size needed for the current packet.

Performance tests showed that ULOG may fail on heavy loaded systems
because of failed order-N allocations (N >= 1).
The default value of 4096 is not optimal in the sense that it actually
allocates _two_ contigous physical pages. Reasoning: ULOG uses
alloc_skb(), which adds another ~300 bytes for skb_shared_info.
This patch sets the default value to NLMSG_GOODSIZE and adds some
documentation at the top.

This makes ebt_log and ebt_ulog use the new nf_log api. This enables
the bridging packet filter to log packets e.g. via nfnetlink_log.

- Remove bogus code for compiling netlink as module
- Add module refcounting support for modules implementing a netlink
protocol
- Add support for autoloading modules that implement a netlink protocol
as soon as someone opens a socket for that protocol

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
