I did a check on /usr/src/linux/net/ipv4/netfilter/Makefile and found
the following line:
obj-$(CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK) += ip_conntrack.o

This (I think) means that if "CONFIG...." is selected, then the module
that corresponds to this selection is ip_conntrack.o

then in /usr/src/linux/net/Makefile

subdir-$(CONFIG_NETFILTER)  += ipv4/netfilter

I think this meant that all modules in ipv4/netfilter would be needed
for that selection.
