/proc/net/ip_masquerade and ip_masq_app only exist if the kernel was
compiled with CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE defined.

/proc/net/ip_autofw only exists if the kernel was compiled with both
CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE and CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPAUTOFW defined.

/proc/net/ip_forward only exists if the kernel was compiled with
CONFIG_IP_FIREWALL defined.

/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward always exists.
