Commit 1d49144c0aaa61be4e3ccbef9cc5c40b0ec5f2fe ("netfilter: nf_tables:
add "inet" table for IPv4/IPv6") allows creation of non-IPV6 enabled
.config files that will fail to configure/link as follows:

warning: (NF_TABLES_INET) selects NF_TABLES_IPV6 which has unmet direct dependencies (NET && INET && IPV6 && NETFILTER && NF_TABLES)
warning: (NF_TABLES_INET) selects NF_TABLES_IPV6 which has unmet direct dependencies (NET && INET && IPV6 && NETFILTER && NF_TABLES)

net/built-in.o: In function `nft_reject_eval':

nft_reject.c:(.text+0x656c4): undefined reference to `ip6_dst_hoplimit'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

Since the feature is to allow for a mixed IPV4 and IPV6 table, it
seems sensible to make it depend on IPV6.
