From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx> xt_LOG has no direct dependency on the syslog-based logger, it relies on the nf_log core to probe the requested backend. Now that all syslog-based loggers reside in the same module, we can just add a soft dependency on nf_log_syslog and let modprobe take care of it.
