[PATCH nf-next v4 1/2] netfilter: Make IP6_NF_IPTABLES_LEGACY selectable

From: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org>
Date: 2024-08-29 16:17:09
Also in: lkml, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

This option makes IP6_NF_IPTABLES_LEGACY user selectable, giving
users the option to configure iptables without enabling any other
config.
