Pablo Neira Ayuso e553116652 netfilter: remove messages print and boot/module load time
Several reasons for this:

* Several modules maintain internal version numbers, that they print at
  boot/module load time, that are not exposed to userspace, as a
  primitive mechanism to make revision number control from the earlier
  days of Netfilter.

* IPset shows the protocol version at boot/module load time, instead
  display this via module description, as Jozsef suggested.

* Remove copyright notice at boot/module load time in two spots, the
  Netfilter codebase is a collective development effort, if we would
  have to display copyrights for each contributor at boot/module load
  time for each extensions we have, we would probably fill up logs with
  lots of useless information - from a technical standpoint.

So let's be consistent and remove them all.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
