[PATCH 08/10] netfilter: nf_conntrack: remove unnecessary RTNL locking

[pablo@netfilter.org]

From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

Locking the rtnl was added to nf_conntrack_l{3,4}_proto_unregister()
for walking the network namespace list. This is not done anymore since
we have proper namespace support in the protocols now, so we don't
need to take the RTNL anymore.
