we can add BUG_ON at nf_conntrack_l4proto_register,because all of the l4protoes
have the init_net function.
BUT nf_conntrack_l3proto_ipv6 doesn't have init_net function,because this proto
doesn't have pernet data, and nf_conntrack_l3proto_ipv4 has pernet data only when
CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PROC_COMPAT is configured.
