====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree.
Basically, nf_tables updates to add the set extension infrastructure and finish
the transaction for sets from Patrick McHardy. More specifically, they are:

1) Move netns to basechain and use recently added possible_net_t, from
   Patrick McHardy.

2) Use LOGLEVEL_<FOO> from nf_log infrastructure, from Joe Perches.

3) Restore nf_log_trace that was accidentally removed during conflict
   resolution.

4) nft_queue does not depend on NETFILTER_XTABLES, starting from here
   all patches from Patrick McHardy.

5) Use raw_smp_processor_id() in nft_meta.

Then, several patches to prepare ground for the new set extension
infrastructure:

6) Pass object length to the hash callback in rhashtable as needed by
   the new set extension infrastructure.

7) Cleanup patch to restore struct nft_hash as wrapper for struct
   rhashtable

8) Another small source code readability cleanup for nft_hash.

9) Convert nft_hash to rhashtable callbacks.

And finally...

10) Add the new set extension infrastructure.

11) Convert the nft_hash and nft_rbtree sets to use it.

12) Batch set element release to avoid several RCU grace period in a row
    and add new function nft_set_elem_destroy() to consolidate set element
    release.

13) Return the set extension data area from nft_lookup.

14) Refactor existing transaction code to add some helper functions
    and document it.

15) Complete the set transaction support, using similar approach to what we
    already use, to activate/deactivate elements in an atomic fashion.
