Would it not make sense instead to abstract out the switch in nf_hook()
 into, say, an inline function that could be called from here?  That
 would satisfy SPOT and also save updating this code if new callers of
 NF_HOOK_LIST are added in the future.

(Sorry I didn't spot this the first time around; I don't know the NF
 code all that well.)
