From d4ef9f72128d414ad83b27b49312faa971d77382 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Agner Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2016 15:05:28 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: bridge: clarify bridge/netfilter message When using bridge without bridge netfilter enabled the message displayed is rather confusing and leads to belive that a deprecated feature is in use. Use IS_MODULE to be explicit that the message only affects users which use bridge netfilter as module and reword the message.
