Functional and cosmetic changes should be in separate patches.

Is it worth extending the union to include unsigned long, to avoid
casting it to u32 here?

I noticed this change and started looking at ovs_ct_get_labels(). It
tries to handle length differences between nf_conn_labels matches
ovs_key_ct_labels, but perhaps it's easier to drop that code and use a
build-time assert that they're the same instead. Since 23014011ba42
("netfilter: conntrack: support a fixed size of 128 distinct labels"),
they haven't been variable length anyway so this can simplify some
code. This can be separate from this patch though.

I think that such a change would be orthogonal from the above change,
the above can stay as is (not much point sharing the function call if
it just retrieves a pointer we already have and does a memcpy).
