netfilter: xtables: remove almost-unused xt_match_param.data member
This member is taking up a "long" per match, yet is only used by one module out of the roughly 90 modules, ip6t_hbh. ip6t_hbh can be restructured a little to accomodate for the lack of the .data member. This variant uses checking the par->match address, which should avoid having to add two extra functions, including calls, i.e. (hbh_mt6: call hbhdst_mt6(skb, par, NEXTHDR_OPT), dst_mt6: call hbhdst_mt6(skb, par, NEXTHDR_DEST)) Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>
