Android netfilter patches

During Kernel Summit, I mentioned that one area of the Android patch
set that hasn't had seemed to have had much discussion were the
netfilter changes.

PJ Waskiewicz asked more about them, and I sent them along to him
to briefly review, and he suggested sending them out for wider review.

So here are some of the Android netfilter changes.

I'm not very familiar with the netfilter code, so I'm not proposing
these be merged, but I'm interested in hearing if folks have any
thoughts about the patches and what changes they thing might be
necessary in order for similar functionality to be included.

You can also access these patches via gitweb here:
