What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: allow exp not to be removed in nf_ct_find_expectation

Currently nf_conntrack_in() calling nf_ct_find_expectation() will

remove the exp from the hash table. However, in some scenario, we

expect the exp not to be removed when the created ct will not be

confirmed, like in OVS and TC conntrack in the following patches.

This patch allows exp not to be removed by setting IPS_CONFIRMED

in the status of the tmpl.
