netfilter: nf_conntrack: pass timeout array to l4->new and l4->packet
This patch defines a new interface for l4 protocol trackers: unsigned int *(*get_timeouts)(struct net *net); that is used to return the array of unsigned int that contains the timeouts that will be applied for this flow. This is passed to the l4proto->new(...) and l4proto->packet(...) functions to specify the timeout policy. This interface allows per-net global timeout configuration (although only DCCP supports this by now) and it will allow custom custom timeout configuration by means of follow-up patches. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
