I think that I have SNAT (at least) working fine with VRFs, without the
commit. What I do is I set notrack at vrf prerouting callback. Could it
be the "proper" way to go? I don't know if I am breaking anything else
though. Here is my reproducer script. SNAT works on kernels without the
"reset conntrack" commit.

(Sorry my Thunderbird inserts extra newlines :( )
