Did you test this for CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=m? For me it isn't building :P.

It won't work like this. When nf_conntrack is a module, the vmlinux.o
of the kernel isn't linked to the object file nf_conntrack_bpf.o.
Hence it would be an undefined reference error. You don't see it in
BPF CI as we set CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=y (to simplify testing).

So you need to have code that locks and checks the cb pointer when
calling it outside the module, which means the global lock variable
and global cb pointer also need to be in the kernel. The module then
takes the same lock and sets cb pointer when loading. During unload,
it takes the same lock and sets it back to NULL.

You can have global variables in vmlinux that you reference from
modules. The compiler will emit a relocation for the module object
file which will be handled by the kernel during module load.

So please test it once with nf_conntrack built as a module before
sending the next revision. The only thing you need to do before
running ./test_progs -t bpf_nf is loading the module nf_conntrack.ko
(and its dependencies, nf_defrag_ipv{4,6}.ko).
