-What:	Bridge netfilter deferred IPv4/IPv6 output hook calling
-When:	January 2007
-Why:	The deferred output hooks are a layering violation causing unusual
-	and broken behaviour on bridge devices. Examples of things they
-	break include QoS classifation using the MARK or CLASSIFY targets,
-	the IPsec policy match and connection tracking with VLANs on a
-	bridge. Their only use is to enable bridge output port filtering
-	within iptables with the physdev match, which can also be done by
-	combining iptables and ebtables using netfilter marks. Until it
-	will get removed the hook deferral is disabled by default and is
-	only enabled when needed.
