That can only work if NFT_REJECT_INET can be made a 'tristate' symbol
again, so that code gets built as a loadable module if
CONFIG_NF_REJECT_IPV6=m.

02c7b25e5f54 is the one that turned NF_TABLES_INET into a 'bool'
symbol. NFT_REJECT depends on NF_TABLES_INET, so it used to
restricted to a loadable module with IPV6=m, but can now be
built-in, which causes that link error.
