netlink: add nlk->netlink_bind hook for module auto-loading
This patch adds a hook in the binding path of netlink. This is used by ctnetlink to allow module autoloading for the case in which one user executes: conntrack -E So far, this resulted in nfnetlink loaded, but not nf_conntrack_netlink. I have received in the past many complains on this behaviour. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
