Please also bump the .revision field to 2 with this patch so that
testing can always proceed without an ABI clash.
(rev 2 would then remain over the course of the remaining patches 
you submit.)
(rev 0 = ipt_condition/pom-ng; rev 1 = xt_condition from Xt-a)

	char buf[sizeof("4294967296")];

seems more intuitive :-)

Is it possible to use just strict_strtoul?

Since the condition value (cdmark) was thought of an nfmark-style thing, 
would it perhaps make sense to model it after it

	return (var->value & ~info->mask) ^ info->value;

Other opinions?
