Please, put this in a separated patch.

Could you also fix this in the nftables compat layer, please? See
iptables/xtables-save.c.

Most likely you'll need to define a struct xtables_afinfo for IPv4 and
IPv6 to set the .kmod field that points to nf_tables_ipv4 and
nf_tables_ipv6 respectively. Similar to what we use in
xtables-arp-standalone.c, and skip xtables_set_nfproto of course. This
is currently broken there.

Thanks.

I'm sorry I have no idea where to start. Could you do that ?
