netfilter: conntrack: avoid useless indirection during conntrack destruction
nf_ct_put() results in a usesless indirection:
nf_ct_put -> nf_conntrack_put -> nf_conntrack_destroy -> rcu readlock +
indirect call of ct_hooks->destroy().
There are two _put helpers:
nf_ct_put and nf_conntrack_put. The latter is what should be used in
code that MUST NOT cause a linker dependency on the conntrack module
(e.g. calls from core network stack).
Everyone else should call nf_ct_put() instead.
A followup patch will convert a few nf_conntrack_put() calls to
nf_ct_put(), in particular from modules that already have a conntrack
dependency such as act_ct or even nf_conntrack itself.
