When moving the IRDA code out of net/ into drivers/staging/irda/net, the link order changes when IRDA is built into the kernel. That causes a kernel crash at boot time as netfilter isn't initialized yet.
To fix this, build and link the irda networking code in the same exact order that it was previously before the move.
