Agreed. I'm used to huge filter configurations up to 100 MiB per
netlink message and therefore I do care whether such as message is
parsed 1 times or 5 times since it's a matter of having the
network blocked for 3 or 15 seconds. However, if it helps to clean
up the error paths then I'll be very happy and do a workaround
for my special case if I ever need loadable modules.
