[PATCH NF_CONNTRACK 0/8]: conflict symbols and getorigdst issue/bugs

[Yasuyuki KOZAKAI]

Hi, Patrick,

These are patches for nf_conntrack which
	- unify common enums/flags in ip_conntrack and nf_conntrack,
	  as we talked,
	- fix other conflicts by changing he name of them in nf_conntrack,
	- change SO_ORIGINAL_DST to IPV6_ORIGINAL_DST in netfilter_ipv6.h
	  SO_* are socket level option names, not IP level. This doesn't
	  change netfilter_ipv4.h because of compatibility issue.
	- fix the bug which cannot find the target conntrack.

BTW, getorigdst() for IPv6 connection is really useful ? IPv6 connections
are not NATed, then I think it's meaningless to call it.
If it looks like it's useless, deleting it is fine with me.
If not, please apply patches I send (08, 09).

Moreover, IPV6_ORIGINAL_DST is 80 in the current. Is this value really
appropriate ?
