Subject: netfilter 00/04: netfilter fixes

Hi Dave,

the following patches for 2.6.29 fix a few netfilter bugs:

- avoid event delivery for conntracks dropped because of clashes (from Pablo)

- fix for a ctnetlink crash during expectation creation caused by a missing
  initialization. Also from Pablo.

- a fix for correctly handling NF_DROP return values from the conntrack
  ->packet() callbacks. From Christoph Pasch.

- reordering of the header checks in IPv6 conntrack reassembly to avoid an
  incorrect log message with NEXTHDR_NONE. Also from Christoph.

Please apply or pull from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kaber/nf-2.6.git

Thanks!
