[PATCH nf,v2] netfilter: nf_conntrack_tcp: preserve liberal flag in tcp options

[PATCH nf,v2] netfilter: nf_conntrack_tcp: preserve liberal flag in tcp options

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

Do not reset IP_CT_TCP_FLAG_BE_LIBERAL flag in out-of-sync scenarios
coming before the TCP window tracking, otherwise such connections will
fail in the window check.

Update tcp_options() to leave this flag in place and add a new helper
function to reset the tcp window state.

v2: - add helper function to reset state.
    - set td_scale to zero in tcp_options().
    - route it through nf.git
