    [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_ipv4: fix module parameter compatibility · fae718dd

    Some users do "modprobe ip_conntrack hashsize=...". Since we have the
    module aliases this loads nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack, the
    hashsize parameter is unknown for nf_conntrack_ipv4 however and makes
    it fail.
    
    Allow to specify hashsize= for both nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack_ipv4.
    
    Note: the nf_conntrack message in the ringbuffer will display an
    incorrect hashsize since nf_conntrack is first pulled in as a
    dependency and calculates the size itself, then it gets changed
    through a call to nf_conntrack_set_hashsize().
