Hi Dave,

following are some netfilter fixes for 2.6.28, containing:

- restauration of a lost #ifdef to fix user-triggerable WARN_ONs in the
  NAT code. Also queued for -stable.

- restauration of ebtables dependencies that got lost during a Kconfig
  restructuring

- a slightly more involved patch from Pablo to remove the bogus NAT module
  dependencies from ctnetlink. It could be argued whether this qualifies as
  a real bugfix since its mainly a "it shouldn't be like this" thing and
  everything works properly, in my opinion it does though because of all
  the side effects that even just loading the NAT module causes. A somewhat
  fitting analogy would be an IPv6 module dependency in, lets say, TCP :)

Please apply, thanks.
