netfilter: nf_log_ipv4: rename to nf_log_syslog
Netfilter has multiple log modules: nf_log_arp nf_log_bridge nf_log_ipv4 nf_log_ipv6 nf_log_netdev nfnetlink_log nf_log_common With the exception of nfnetlink_log (packet is sent to userspace for dissection/logging), all of them log to the kernel ringbuffer. This is the first part of a series to merge all modules except nfnetlink_log into a single module: nf_log_syslog. This allows to reduce code. After the series, only two log modules remain: nfnetlink_log and nf_log_syslog. The latter provides the same functionality as the old per-af log modules. This renames nf_log_ipv4 to nf_log_syslog.
