[NETFILTER] Fix conntrack event cache deadlock/oops
This patch fixes a number of bugs. It cannot be reasonably split up in multiple fixes, since all bugs interact with each other and affect the same function: Bug #1: The event cache code cannot be called while a lock is held. Therefore, the call to ip_conntrack_event_cache() within ip_ct_refresh_acct() needs to be moved outside of the locked section. This fixes a number of 2.6.14-rcX oops and deadlock reports. Bug #2: We used to call ct_add_counters() for unconfirmed connections without holding a lock. Since the add operations are not atomic, we could race with another CPU. Bug #3: ip_ct_refresh_acct() lost REFRESH events in some cases where refresh (and the corresponding event) are desired, but no accounting shall be performed. Both, evenst and accounting implicitly depended on the skb parameter bein non-null. We now re-introduce a non-accounting "ip_ct_refresh()" variant to explicitly state the desired behaviour.
