X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=741385119706d4370eb7899c5ca96ad125c520e5;p=linux-beck.git

netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix early_drop with reliable event delivery

If reliable event delivery is enabled and ctnetlink fails to deliver
the destroy event in early_drop, the conntrack subsystem cannot
drop any the candidate flow that was planned to be evicted.
