maybe i get thinkgs wrong right now,but it still get enabled now,
because

/boot/config-6.17.6+deb14-amd64:CONFIG_NETFILTER_ADVANCED=y
/boot/config-6.17.6+deb14-amd64:CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_MASQUERADE=m
/boot/config-6.17.6+deb14-amd64:CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE=m

and

config IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE
        tristate "MASQUERADE target support"
        select NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_MASQUERADE
        help
          This is a backwards-compat option for the user's convenience
          (e.g. when running oldconfig). It selects NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_MASQUERADE.

Is this correct?

Regards,
Salvatore
