Hi,

I'm happy to announce the 5.1 version of the new ipset branch. Here 
follows the changelogs for the userspace and kernel parts:

userspace:
 - Test cases for IPv6 restore and more complex restore sessions added
 - Restore mode did not work for IPv6, fixed (reported by Elie Rosenblum)
 - libipset: static annotations (Jan Engelhardt)
 - libipset: const annotations (Jan Engelhardt)
 - libipset: remove redundant casts (Jan Engelhardt)
 - libipset: remove redundant indirection via union name (Jan Engelhardt) 
 - libipset: ipset_strncpy is really a strlcpy-type operation
   (Jan Engelhardt)
 - Prevent calling Makefile directly in the kernel/ subdirectory
 - Put back the Sparc specific workaround at getaddrinfo
   (reported by Jan Engelhardt)
 - Check old system kernel header files
 - Check from `configure` that the kernel source is patched with
   netlink.patch
 - Use configure to detect compiler warning flags
 - Try to solve PKG_CHECK_MODULES issue (reported by Rob Sterenborg)
 - Fix incorrect comparison in check_allowed (reported by Jan Engelhardt)

kernel part:
 - Kernel version compatibility: support bumped starting from 2.6.34
   (Supporting older kernel releases would mean too much burden for me,
   sorry.)
 - kernel: use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL (Jan Engelhardt)
 - kernel: const annotations (Jan Engelhardt)
 - kernel: use __read_mostly for registration-type structures
   (Jan Engelhardt)
 - kernel: do not mix const and __read_mostly (Jan Engelhardt)
 - xt_set: avoid user types in exported kernel headers (Jan Engelhardt)
 - build: enable parallel building (Jan Engelhardt)
 - Fix Kbuild for me to delete backup files
