netfilter: ctnetlink: add callbacks to the per-proto nlattrs
There is added a single callback for the l3 proto helper. The two callbacks for the l4 protos are necessary because of the general structure of a ctnetlink event, which is in short: CTA_TUPLE_ORIG <l3/l4-proto-attributes> CTA_TUPLE_REPLY <l3/l4-proto-attributes> CTA_ID ... CTA_PROTOINFO <l4-proto-attributes> CTA_TUPLE_MASTER <l3/l4-proto-attributes> Therefore the formular is size := sizeof(generic-nlas) + 3 * sizeof(tuple_nlas) + sizeof(protoinfo_nlas) Some of the NLAs are optional, e. g. CTA_TUPLE_MASTER, which is only set if it's an expected connection. But the number of optional NLAs is small enough to prevent netlink_trim() from reallocating if calculated properly.
