netns is given personal conntrack hash. Another way is to have one hash

I think is makes more sense your way, otherwise eviction becomes much
more complicated or people can easily DoS other namespaces.

Functions that search by tuple (numerical data) get netns argument
to know where to search as well as conntrack flush functions gets netns
argument propagated.

Everybody is stubbed to init_net, except trivial places.

Shouldn't the lock also be per namespace?

Just a general comments, maybe its done in a later patch. But
for nf_conntrack_cleanup(), you also need to put the untrack
entry in a namespace, otherwise different use in different
namespaces will prevent cleanup from completing.
