    netfilter: move checksum indirection to struct nf_ipv6_ops · ef71fe27
    Pablo Neira Ayuso authored
    We cannot make a direct call to nf_ip6_checksum() because that would
    result in autoloading the 'ipv6' module because of symbol dependencies.
    Therefore, define checksum indirection in nf_ipv6_ops where this really
    belongs to.
    
    For IPv4, we can indeed make a direct function call, which is faster,
    given IPv4 is built-in in the networking code by default. Still,
    CONFIG_INET=n and CONFIG_NETFILTER=y is possible, so define empty inline
    stub for IPv4 in such case.
