>    Florian Westphal.
> 
> 4) Avoid softlock splats via iptables-restore, also from Florian.
> 
> 5) Revert NAT hashtable conversion to rhashtable, semantics of rhlist
>    are different from our simple NAT hashtable, this has been causing
>    problems in the recent Linux kernel releases. From Florian.
> 
> 6) Add per-bucket spinlock for NAT hashtable, so at least we restore
>    one of the benefits we got from the previous rhashtable conversion.
> 
> 7) Fix incorrect hashtable size in memory allocation in xt_hashlimit,
>    from Zhizhou Tian.
> 
> 8) Fix build/link problems with hashlimit and 32-bit arches, to address
>    recent fallout from a new hashlimit mode, from Vishwanath Pai.

Pulled, thanks Pablo.
