This moves bridge hooks to a register-when-needed scheme. We use a device notifier to register the 'call-iptables' netfilter hooks only once a bridge gets added. This means that if the initial namespace uses a bridge, newly created network namespaces no longer get the PRE_ROUTING ipt_sabotage hook. It will registered in that network namespace once a bridge is created within that namespace. A few modules still use global hooks: - conntrack - bridge PF_BRIDGE hooks - IPVS - CLUSTER match (deprecated) - SYNPROXY As long as these modules are not loaded/used, a new network namespace has empty hook list and NF_HOOK() will boil down to single list_empty test even if initial namespace does stateless packet filtering.
