netfilter: xtables: idletimer target implementation
This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time. Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted whenever any of the rules get a hit. One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under the xt_idletimer class: /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label> When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

+ This option adds the `IDLETIMER' target. Each matching packet
+ resets the timer associated with label specified when the rule is
+ added. When the timer expires, it triggers a sysfs notification.
+ The remaining time for expiration can be read via sysfs.
+
+ To compile it as a module, choose M here. If unsure, say N.
