In order to send sampled packets to userspace, NIC driver calls

Is it too crazy to just make CONFIG_PSAMPLE a bool so that it
won't be a module?
Thanks.
That's a crazy and simple solution. But adding such a stub is a common
method to
remove the NIC driver dependency for modules. And comparing with other
act_xxx
modules, psample is not small now.
Instead of discussing it several days, maybe it's better to review
current patch, so that
we can move forward :)
Thanks.
