nf_conntrack_ipv4 must be loaded explicitly

Hi,


in recent git kernels, I experience the following "regression" that no
packets traverse the nat table (esp. the POSTROUTING counters just stand
still) - and hence things like ping+SNAT do not work. Bisect nailed it
down to:

ff09b7493c8f433d3ffd6a31ad58d190f82ef0c5 is first bad commit
commit ff09b7493c8f433d3ffd6a31ad58d190f82ef0c5

The diff from ff09b7^...ff09b7 made me think...

End result:

After loading nf_conntrack_ipv4.ko, everything works again (also with
the "bad" ff09b7). But I have to load it explicitly, and I think that
unfortunately breaks a lot of setups (such as mine) which assume ipv4
connection tracking is always there.

Comments?
