====================
Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree,
they are:

1) Fix compilation warning in xt_hashlimit on m68k 32-bits, from
   Geert Uytterhoeven.

2) Fix wrong timeout in set elements added from packet path via
   nft_dynset, from Anders K. Pedersen.

3) Remove obsolete nf_conntrack_events_retry_timeout sysctl
   documentation, from Nicolas Dichtel.

4) Ensure proper initialization of log flags via xt_LOG, from
   Liping Zhang.

5) Missing alias to autoload ipcomp, also from Liping Zhang.

6) Missing NFTA_HASH_OFFSET attribute validation, again from Liping.

7) Wrong integer type in the new nft_parse_u32_check() function,
   from Dan Carpenter.

8) Another wrong integer type declaration in nft_exthdr_init, also
   from Dan Carpenter.

9) Fix insufficient mode validation in nft_range.

10) Fix compilation warning in nft_range due to possible uninitialized
    value, from Arnd Bergmann.

11) Zero nf_hook_ops allocated via xt_hook_alloc() in x_tables to
    calm down kmemcheck, from Florian Westphal.

12) Schedule gc_worker() to run again if GC_MAX_EVICTS quota is reached,
    from Nicolas Dichtel.

13) Fix nf_queue() after conversion to single-linked hook list, related
    to incorrect bypass flag handling and incorrect hook point of
    reinjection.

 	If this option is enabled, the connection tracking code will
 	provide userspace with connection tracking events via ctnetlink.

-
-	This option is only relevant when "reliable connection tracking
-	events" are used.  Normally, ctnetlink is "lossy", that is,
-	events are normally dropped when userspace listeners can't keep up.
-
-	Userspace can request "reliable event mode".  When this mode is
-	active, the conntrack will only be destroyed after the event was
-	delivered.  If event delivery fails, the kernel periodically
-	re-tries to send the event to userspace.
-
-	This is the maximum interval the kernel should use when re-trying
-	to deliver the destroy event.
-
-	A higher number means there will be fewer delivery retries and it
-	will take longer for a backlog to be processed.
-
 nf_conntrack_expect_max - INTEGER
 	Maximum size of expectation table.  Default value is
 	nf_conntrack_buckets / 256. Minimum is 1.
