nf_hook_list_active() always returns true once at least one device has
NF_INGRESS hook enabled.

Thus, don't use this function. Instead, inverse the test and use the static
key to elide list_empty test if no NF_INGRESS hooks are active.

Florian, I think this qualifies as a fix, I'm going to apply this to
the nf tree.

Thanks.
