Subject: [PATCH 5.4 140/142] netfilter: conntrack: Pass value of ctinfo to __nf_conntrack_update

From: Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@...il.com>

commit 46c1e0621a72e0469ec4edfdb6ed4d387ec34f8a upstream.

Clang warns:

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:2068:21: warning: variable 'ctinfo' is
uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
        nf_ct_set(skb, ct, ctinfo);
                           ^~~~~~
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:2024:2: note: variable 'ctinfo' is
declared here
        enum ip_conntrack_info ctinfo;
        ^
1 warning generated.

nf_conntrack_update was split up into nf_conntrack_update and
__nf_conntrack_update, where the assignment of ctinfo is in
nf_conntrack_update but it is used in __nf_conntrack_update.

Pass the value of ctinfo from nf_conntrack_update to
__nf_conntrack_update so that uninitialized memory is not used
and everything works properly.
