Subject: netfilter: handle NF_REPEAT from nf_conntrack_in()
X-Git-Tag: v4.14-rc1~1973^2~281^2~29
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=08733a0cb7decce40bbbd0331a0449465f13c444;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git

netfilter: handle NF_REPEAT from nf_conntrack_in()

NF_REPEAT is only needed from nf_conntrack_in() under a very specific
case required by the TCP protocol tracker, we can handle this case
without returning to the core hook path. Handling of NF_REPEAT from the
nf_reinject() is left untouched.
