The NFQA_TIMESTAMP structure is in network byte order, so it seems
appropriate to add a helper to convert it to a timeval struct.

I think we can update nfq_get_timestamp to use libmnl without breaking
backward compatibility. Same thing with all other getter functions
that we have.

Regards.

How did you plan to do this without breaking api/abi?

To call the existing libnfnetlink based function given an libmnl attr[] array
you need to:

struct nfq_data d;
d.data = (void **) &attr[1];
nfq_get_timestamp(&d, &tv);

Which is just "ewww".
