Subject: [patch 19/37] nf_conntrack: padding breaks conntrack hash on ARM

2.6.25-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: padding breaks conntrack hash on ARM
Upstream commit 443a70d50:
commit 0794935e "[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: optimize hash_conntrack()"
results in ARM platforms hashing uninitialised padding. This padding
doesn't exist on other architectures.
Fix this by replacing NF_CT_TUPLE_U_BLANK() with memset() to ensure
everything is initialised. There were only 4 bytes that
NF_CT_TUPLE_U_BLANK() wasn't clearing anyway (or 12 bytes on ARM).
