TCP connection tracking suffers of huge contention on a global rwlock, is used for protecting the tcp conntracking state. As each tcp conntrack state have no relations between each others, we can switch to fine grained lock, using a spinlock per "struct ip_ct_tcp" tcp_print_conntrack() dont need to lock anything to read ct->proto.tcp.state, so speedup /proc/net/ip_conntrack as well.
