The patch is fine, but it leaves the somewhat broken function
__ip_ct_expect_unlink_destroy around. I'm not sure what the
intention of this function is, it looks like a lazy way of
killing conntracks without manually dropping the timer refcnt.
Anyway it invites people to use it in the wrong place and
should die IMO.
