Yes, to distinguish between x/ebtables and nftables.  The first three
overlap (as suggested by the first comment in the changelog above).

I would have liked to do that, but it would then have meant making a new
function name, say audit_log_nftcfg vs the original audit_log_nfcfg so
that the overlapping values could be translated appropriately with the
correct prefix.

Well, considering the buildbot error, I had to restructure it so that
the table was moved from include/linux/audit.h to
net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c where it would be a bit more evident.

At first I thought the bot was complaining about the first field not
being used, but it turned out it was ptrace that was including it and
not using it.

Ok, I see what you are getting at now...  Yes, it could be done this
way, but it seems noisier to me.
