Florian Westphal 3803312a3c netfilter: avoid ipv6 -> nf_defrag_ipv6 module dependency
[ Upstream commit 2404b73c3f1a5f15726c6ecd226b56f6f992767f ]

nf_ct_frag6_gather is part of nf_defrag_ipv6.ko, not ipv6 core.

The current use of the netfilter ipv6 stub indirections  causes a module
dependency between ipv6 and nf_defrag_ipv6.

This prevents nf_defrag_ipv6 module from being removed because ipv6 can't
be unloaded.

Remove the indirection and always use a direct call.  This creates a
depency from nf_conntrack_bridge to nf_defrag_ipv6 instead:

modinfo nf_conntrack
depends:        nf_conntrack,nf_defrag_ipv6,bridge

.. and nf_conntrack already depends on nf_defrag_ipv6 anyway.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
