Subject: [PATCH net-next 10/15] netfilter: nf_conntrack_pptp: move GRE specific cleanup to GRE tracker
Date: Sun, 7 Jun 2026 11:49:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260607094954.48892-11-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260607094954.48892-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
Move the GRE specific cleanup to nf_conntrack_proto_gre.c to ensure that
the .destroy callback for the pptp helper is still reachable by existing
conntrack entries while pptp module is being removed.
This is a preparation patch, no functional changes are intended.
