I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still left in the original interface. That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows easy extensibility of this interface in the future. This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

This is used by ctnetlink to allow module autoloading for the case in which one user executes: conntrack -E So far, this resulted in nfnetlink loaded, but not nf_conntrack_netlink. I have received in the past many complains on this behaviour. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso Signed-off-by: David S.
