Subject: [PATCH 13/18] openvswitch: Update the CT state key only after nf_conntrack_in().

From: Jarno Rajahalme <jarno@....org>

Only a successful nf_conntrack_in() call can effect a connection state
change, so it suffices to update the key only after the
nf_conntrack_in() returns.

This change is needed for the later NAT patches.
