[ Upstream commit cf778b00e96df6d64f8e21b8395d1f8a859ecdc7 ]

commit a9b3cd7f32 (rcu: convert uses of rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) to
RCU_INIT_POINTER) did a lot of incorrect changes, since it did a
complete conversion of rcu_assign_pointer(x, y) to RCU_INIT_POINTER(x,
y).

We miss needed barriers, even on x86, when y is not NULL.

<title>netfilter: ctnetlink: fix timeout calculation</title>

The sanity check (timeout &lt; 0) never works; the dividend is unsigned
and so is the division, which should have been a signed division.

	long timeout = (ct-&gt;timeout.expires - jiffies) / HZ;
	if (timeout &lt; 0)
		timeout = 0;

This patch converts the time values to signed for the division.

	We should not forget to try for real server with port 0
in the backup server when processing the sync message. We should
do it in all cases because the backup server can use different
forwarding method.

This patch fixes one scheduling while atomic error:

[  385.565186] ctnetlink v0.93: registering with nfnetlink.
[  385.565349] BUG: scheduling while atomic: lt-expect_creat/16163/0x00000200

It can be triggered with utils/expect_create included in
libnetfilter_conntrack if the FTP helper is not loaded.

This fixes one bogus error that is returned to user-space:

libnetfilter_conntrack/utils# ./expect_get
TEST: get expectation (-1)(Unknown error 18446744073709551504)

This patch includes the correct handling for EAGAIN (nfnetlink
uses this error value to restart the operation after module
auto-loading).

"! --connbytes 23:42" should match if the packet/byte count is not in range.

As there is no explict "invert match" toggle in the match structure,
userspace swaps the from and to arguments
(i.e., as if "--connbytes 42:23" were given).

However, "what &lt;= 23 &amp;&amp; what &gt;= 42" will always be false.

Change things so we use "||" in case "from" is larger than "to".

This change may look like it breaks backwards compatibility when "to" is 0.
However, older iptables binaries will refuse "connbytes 42:0",
and current releases treat it to mean "! --connbytes 0:42",
so we should be fine.
