[PATCH nf-next 0/5] netfilter: conntrack: shrink size of netns_ct

[Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>]

This reduces size of the netns_ct structure, which itself is embedded
in struct net.

First two patches move two helper related settings to net_generic,
these are only accessed when a new connection is added.

Patches 3 and 4 move the ct and expect counter to net_generic too.
While these are used from packet path, they are not accessed when
conntack finds an existing entry.

This also makes netns_ct a read-mostly structure, at this time each
newly accepted conntrack dirties the first netns_ct cacheline for other
cpus.

Last patch converts a few sysctls to u8.  Most conntrack sysctls are
timeouts, so these need to be kept as ints.

    data
