It will allow us to remove the old netfilter hook api in the near future.

I have applied this to git://github.com/cschaufler/smack-next#smack-for-4.13
Thanks Casey.

We're very much looking forward to getting rid of all these
nf_register_hooks() calls all over the tree. This patch helps us going
in that direction.
selinux is the last user of this api left in the tree.
Once Paul applies my patch to convert to pernet_ops we only have to wait until
all the changes are in linus tree.
Thanks for the reminder, since the SELinux patch didn't go to the
SELinux mailing list it got "lost" during the post-merge-window merge.
Regardless, it's merged into selinux/next and it should go upstream
during the next merge window.
