Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] net/sched: retire tc ipt action

In keeping up with my status as a hero who removes code: another one bites the
dust.
The tc ipt action was intended to run all netfilter/iptables target.
Unfortunately it has not benefitted over the years from proper updates when
netfilter changes, and for that reason it has remained rudimentary.
Pinging a bunch of people that i was aware were using this indicates that
removing it wont affect them.
Retire it to reduce maintenance efforts.
So Long, ipt, and Thanks for all the Fish.
