Kernel doesn't need it, but debug output improves significantly. Before this patch: | # iptables-nft -vv -A INPUT | [...] | unknown filter INPUT use 0 type filter hook unknown prio 0 policy accept packets 0 bytes 0 | [...] and after: | # iptables-nft -vv -A INPUT | [...] | ip filter INPUT use 0 type filter hook input prio 0 policy accept packets 0 bytes 0 | [...] While being at it, make nft_chain_builtin_alloc() take only the builtin table's name as parameter - it's the only field it accesses.
