netfilter: nf_conntrack: IPS_UNTRACKED bit
NOTRACK makes all cpus share a cache line on nf_conntrack_untracked twice per packet. This is bad for performance. __read_mostly annotation is also a bad choice. This patch introduces IPS_UNTRACKED bit so that we can use later a per_cpu untrack structure more easily. A new helper, nf_ct_untracked_get() returns a pointer to nf_conntrack_untracked. Another one, nf_ct_untracked_status_or() is used by nf_nat_init() to add IPS_NAT_DONE_MASK bits to untracked status. nf_ct_is_untracked() prototype is changed to work on a nf_conn pointer.
