OK, I'm splitting them now.

Thanks.

+static inline const struct nf_conntrack_tuple *
+nf_ct_tuple(const struct nf_conn *ct, enum ip_conntrack_dir dir)
+{
+    return &ct->tuplehash[dir].tuple;
+}
This is a useful helper for other situations as well, so I think
it shouldn't be const.

I get:

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c:370: warning: passing argument 1 of
'nf_ct_tuple' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c:377: warning: passing argument 1 of
'nf_ct_tuple' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

So I have to remove the 'const' from the last parameter of
ctnetlink_fill_info().

Or do some ugly casting in the nf_ct_tuple() calls to avoid the warning,
in that case I would prefer to leave that macro there.

Please, let me know what you prefer.

The best way is probably to keep using a macro since there's
no other way to handle this properly. But I'm all in favour
of renaming that macro and making it globally available as
you did.
