Hi,

Done. Patch passes checkpatch.pl except for:
- nf_conntrack_tuple.h and nf_nat.h in include/net/netfilter/;
  these two files are copied frome kernel tree;
- lack of signed-off which AFAIK is used for kernel patches only;

I hope it's ok.

Done.

Updated versions are located here:

To address your concerns I've added new module parameter:

whole_prefix: use network and broadcast addresses of specified prefix
for bindings (default: 1) (uint)

Implementing this as target parameter would be messy because data
structures for a given prefix are created on addition of the first
rule for a given prefix.

best regards,
