PATCH RESEND v2 1/1 nf_nat: no IP_NAT_RANGE_MAP_IPS flags when alloc_null_binding()

When alloc_null_binding(), no IP_NAT_RNAGE_MAP_IPS in flags means no IP address translation is needed. It isn't necessary to specify the address explicitly.

---
v2: Initialize range.flags only instead of the whole structure.

Applied.
