Subject: netfilter: remove unneeded variable proc_net_netfilter
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~3680^2~548^2~243^2~1
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=12202fa7573d32aa0915cde6e8fab4c86b63ca2c;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

netfilter: remove unneeded variable proc_net_netfilter

Now that this supports net namespace for nflog and nfqueue,
we can remove the global proc_net_netfilter which has no
clients anymore.

Based on patch from Gao feng.
