Subject: [PATCH 07/13] netfilter: conntrack: remove unneeded nf_ct_put
From: Florian Westphal <fw@...len.de>
We can delay refcount increment until we reassign the existing entry to
the current skb.
A 0 refcount can't happen while the nf_conn object is still in the
hash table and parallel mutations are impossible because we hold the
bucket lock.
