It seems we cannot pass NULL since it will default on log level 5
instead of 4, and I think there may be users relying on that too.

I'm attaching a patch to address this problem.

Thanks for reporting.

Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: restore rule tracing via nfnetlink_log
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Since fab4085 ("netfilter: log: nf_log_packet() as real unified
interface"), the loginfo structure that is passed to nf_log_packet()
is used to explicitly indicate the logger type you want to use.

This is a problem for people tracing rules through nfnetlink_log since
packets are always routed to the NF_LOG_TYPE logger after the
aforementioned patch.

We can fix this by removing the trace loginfo structures, but that still
changes the log level from 4 to 5 for tracing messages and there may be
someone relying on this outthere. So let's just introduce some compat
code to restore the former behaviour.
