    This change prepares for upcoming on-demand xtables hook registration.
    
    We change the protoypes of the register/unregister functions.
    A followup patch will then add nf_hook_register/unregister calls
    to the iptables one.
    
    Once a hook is registered packets will be picked up, so all assignments
    of the form
    
    net->ipv4.iptable_$table = new_table
    
    have to be moved to ip(6)t_register_table, else we can see NULL
    net->ipv4.iptable_$table later.
    
    This patch doesn't change functionality; without this the actual change
    simply gets too big.
