20c2df83d2 mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

7ae7730fd6 [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: early_drop improvement
When the maximum number of conntrack entries is reached and a new
one needs to be allocated, conntrack tries to drop an unassured
connection from the same hash bucket the new conntrack would hash
to. Since with a properly sized hash the average number of entries
per bucket is 1, the chances of actually finding one are not very
good. This patch makes it walk the hash until a minimum number of
8 entries are checked.

a71c085562 [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: use hashtable for expectations
Currently all expectations are kept on a global list that

- needs to be searched for every new conncetion
- needs to be walked for evicting expectations when a master connection
  has reached its limit
- needs to be walked on connection destruction for connections that
  have open expectations

This is obviously not good, especially when considering helpers like
H.323 that register *lots* of expectations and can set up permanent
expectations, but it also allows for an easy DoS against firewalls
using connection tracking helpers.

Use a hashtable for expectations to avoid incurring the search overhead
for every new connection. The default hash size is 1/256 of the conntrack
hash table size, this can be overriden using a module parameter.

This patch only introduces the hash table for expectation lookups and
keeps other users to reduce the noise, the following patches will get
rid of it completely.

masks from helpers since the only reasonable choice is a full

f205c5e0c2 [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: use hlists for conntrack hash
Convert conntrack hash to hlists to reduce its size and cache
footprint. Since the default hashsize to max. entries ratio
sucks (1:16), this patch doesn't reduce the amount of memory
used for the hash by default, but instead uses a better ratio
of 1:8, which results in the same max. entries value.

One thing worth noting is early_drop. It really should use LRU,
so it now has to iterate over the entire chain to find the last
unconfirmed entry. Since chains shouldn't be very long and the
entire operation is very rare this shouldn't be a problem.

d8a0509a69 [NETFILTER]: nf_nat: kill global 'destroy' operation
This kills the global 'destroy' operation which was used by NAT.
Instead it uses the extension infrastructure so that multiple
extensions can register own operations.

ecfab2c9fe [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: introduce extension infrastructure
Old space allocator of conntrack had problems about extensibility.
- It required slab cache per combination of extensions.
- It expected what extensions would be assigned, but it was impossible
  to expect that completely, then we allocated bigger memory object than
  really required.
- It needed to search helper twice due to lock issue.

Now basic informations of a connection are stored in 'struct nf_conn'.
And a storage for extension (helper, NAT) is allocated by kmalloc.
