    netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix ICMP/ICMPv6 timeout sysctls on big-endian
    
    An old bug crept back into the ICMP/ICMPv6 conntrack protocols: the timeout
    values are defined as unsigned longs, the sysctl's maxsize is set to
    sizeof(unsigned int). Use unsigned int for the timeout values as in the
    other conntrack protocols.
