This option makes legacy Netfilter Kconfig user selectable, giving users the option to configure iptables without enabling any other config. Make the following KConfig entries user selectable: * BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES_LEGACY * IP_NF_ARPTABLES * IP_NF_IPTABLES_LEGACY * IP6_NF_IPTABLES_LEGACY Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Changelog: v6: * Expand it for BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES_LEGACY and IP_NF_ARPTABLES (Pablo) * Merge all changes in a single patch (Pablo) v5: * Change the description of the legacy Kconfig (Pablo) * https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240909084620.3155679-2-leitao@xxxxxxxxxx/ v4: * Remove the "depends on" part, which may come later in a separate change, given its intrusive on how to configure selftests * https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240829161656.832208-1-leitao@xxxxxxxxxx/ v3: * Make sure that the generate from tools/testing/selftests/net/config look the same before and after.
