This patch unconditionally requires CAP_NET_ADMIN for all nfnetlink
messages.  It also removes the per-message cap_required field, since all
existing subsystems use CAP_NET_ADMIN for all their messages anyway.

Patrick McHardy owes me a beer if we ever need to re-introduce this.

Looks like the nf_conntrack TCP code was slightly mismerged: it does
not contain an else branch present in the IPv4 version. Let's add that
code and make the testsuite happy.

Some devices (e.g. Qlogic iSCSI HBA hardware like QLA4010 up to firmware
3.0.0.4) initiates TCP with SYN and PUSH flags set.

The Linux TCP/IP stack deals fine with that, but the connection tracking
code doesn't.

This patch alters TCP connection tracking to accept SYN+PUSH as a valid
flag combination.

The existing connection tracking subsystem in netfilter can only
handle ipv4.  There were basically two choices present to add
connection tracking support for ipv6.  We could either duplicate all
of the ipv4 connection tracking code into an ipv6 counterpart, or (the
choice taken by these patches) we could design a generic layer that
could handle both ipv4 and ipv6 and thus requiring only one sub-protocol
(TCP, UDP, etc.) connection tracking helper module to be written.

In fact nf_conntrack is capable of working with any layer 3
protocol.

The existing ipv4 specific conntrack code could also not deal
with the pecularities of doing connection tracking on ipv6,
which is also cured here.  For example, these issues include:

1) ICMPv6 handling, which is used for neighbour discovery in
   ipv6 thus some messages such as these should not participate
   in connection tracking since effectively they are like ARP
   messages

2) fragmentation must be handled differently in ipv6, because
   the simplistic "defrag, connection track and NAT, refrag"
   (which the existing ipv4 connection tracking does) approach simply
   isn't feasible in ipv6

3) ipv6 extension header parsing must occur at the correct spots
   before and after connection tracking decisions, and there were
   no provisions for this in the existing connection tracking
   design

4) ipv6 has no need for stateful NAT

The ipv4 specific conntrack layer is kept around, until all of
the ipv4 specific conntrack helpers are ported over to nf_conntrack
and it is feature complete.  Once that occurs, the old conntrack
stuff will get placed into the feature-removal-schedule and we will
fully kill it off 6 months later.

Without this patch, any user can cause nfnetlink subsystems to be
autoloaded.  Those subsystems however could add significant processing
overhead to packet processing, and would refuse any configuration messages
from non-CAP_NET_ADMIN processes anyway.

This patch follows a suggestion from Patrick McHardy.

As Henrik Nordstrom pointed out, all our efforts with "split endian" (i.e.
host byte order tags, net byte order values) are useless, unless a parser
can determine whether an attribute is nested or not.

This patch steals the highest bit of nfattr.nfa_type to indicate whether
the data payload contains a nested nfattr (1) or not (0).

This will break userspace compatibility, but luckily no kernel with
nfnetlink was released so far.

I've found the problem in general.  It affects any 64-bit
architecture.  The problem occurs when you change the system time.

Suppose that when you boot your system clock is forward by a day.
This gets recorded down in skb_tv_base.  You then wind the clock back
by a day.  From that point onwards the offset will be negative which
essentially overflows the 32-bit variables they're stored in.

In fact, why don't we just store the real time stamp in those 32-bit
variables? After all, we're not going to overflow for quite a while
yet.

When we do overflow, we'll need a better solution of course.

Add ctnetlink subsystem for userspace-access to ip_conntrack table.
This allows reading and updating of existing entries, as well as
creating new ones (and new expect's) via nfnetlink.

Please note the 'strange' byte order: nfattr (tag+length) are in host
byte order, while the payload is always guaranteed to be in network
byte order.  This allows a simple userspace process to encapsulate netlink
messages into arch-independent udp packets by just processing/swapping the
headers and not knowing anything about the actual payload.
