[PATCH net-next 06/22] netfilter: x_tables: add xt_find_table

[Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>]

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

This will be used to obtain the xt_table struct given address family and
table name.

Followup patches will reduce the number of direct accesses to the xt_table
structures via net->ipv{4,6}.ip(6)table_{nat,mangle,...} pointers, then
remove them.
