If the iptables modules are not loaded when iptables-save is run,
iptables-save will fail, because it can't open the relevant files in
/proc.  This patch makes iptables-save attempt to load the modules, and
then retries.

Is this the correct list for this?

It is. The patch seems rather pointless though, if the module isn't
loaded, there's obviously nothing to save.

What does "fail" mean in this context?
