datapath: backport: openvswitch: fix conntrack netlink event delivery
Upstream commit: commit d913d3a763a6f66a862a6eafcf6da89a7905832a Author: Samuel Gauthier <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 28 17:22:26 2016 +0200 openvswitch: fix conntrack netlink event delivery Only the first and last netlink message for a particular conntrack are actually sent. The first message is sent through nf_conntrack_confirm when the conntrack is committed. The last one is sent when the conntrack is destroyed on timeout. The other conntrack state change messages are not advertised. When the conntrack subsystem is used from netfilter, nf_conntrack_confirm is called for each packet, from the postrouting hook, which in turn calls nf_ct_deliver_cached_events to send the state change netlink messages. This commit fixes the problem by calling nf_ct_deliver_cached_events in the non-commit case as well.
