netfilter: conntrack: don't call iter for non-confirmed conntracks


[ Upstream commit b0feacaad13a0aa9657c37ed80991575981e2e3b ]

nf_ct_iterate_cleanup_net currently calls iter() callback also for
conntracks on the unconfirmed list, but this is unsafe.

Acesses to nf_conn are fine, but some users access the extension area
in the iter() callback, but that does only work reliably for confirmed
conntracks (ct->ext can be reallocated at any time for unconfirmed
conntrack).

The seond issue is that there is a short window where a conntrack entry
is neither on the list nor in the table: To confirm an entry, it is first
removed from the unconfirmed list, then insert into the table.

Fix this by iterating the unconfirmed list first and marking all entries
as dying, then wait for rcu grace period.

This makes sure all entries that were about to be confirmed either are
in the main table, or will be dropped soon.
