Netfilter HW offloading is the main motivation of these changes. You can try to spin it any way you like, but I think this is pretty clear. Would the author of these changes be even be remotely interested in this "cleanup" in areas of code he has never been involved in if that were not the case? I think it is very dishonest to portray the situation differently. Thank you.
