[PATCH] netfilter: use krealloc() in nf_conntrack_extend.c V2
From: Pekka Enberg <penberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The ksize() API is going away because it is being abused and it doesn't even
work consistenly across different allocators. Therefore, convert
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_extend.c to use krealloc().

Patrick, please use this patch instead. The previous one did the moving
unconditionally which is wrong. This one moves entries around only if
krealloc() allocated a new buffer.

Applied, thanks.
