This is a leftover from the times when this function was wired up via pernet_operations. Now its called when userspace asks for the table. With CONFIG_NET_NS=n, iptable_raw_table_init memory has been discarded already and we get a kernel crash. Other tables are fine, __net_init annotation was removed already.
