[NETFILTER]: Fix ip_conntrack_flush abuse in ctnetlink
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
ip_conntrack_flush() used to be part of ip_conntrack_cleanup(), which needs
to drop _all_ references on module unload. Table flushed using ctnetlink
just needs to clean the table and doesn't need to flush the event cache or
wait for any references attached to skbs. Move everything but pure table
flushing back to ip_conntrack_cleanup().
