What is this used for? It doesn't seem to smart to poll manually
if you get an event anyways, and the timeout can already be set
per rule.

This should be a x_tables target, there's nothing IPv4-specific
about it.

Please use pr_debug and get rid of the config option.

Unnecessary initialization.

Use after free, utimer_delete() frees the timer.

How does this handle namespace exit?

setup_timer()

So you're scanning the list up to twice per packet? That seems
highly suboptimal, why not create the timer when the rule is
created and only update the timeout? You could use the interfaces
specified in struct ipt_ip.

Using %u seems better.

deadlock? unregister_netdevice_notifier() already takes the RTNL.

The return convention in the current net-next tree is 0 for
no error or an errno code otherwise.
