commit 65cb9fda32be613216f601a330b311c3bd7a8436 Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Jun 13 12:21:49 2009 +0200 netfilter: nf_conntrack: use mod_timer_pending() for conntrack refresh Use mod_timer_pending() instead of atomic sequence of del_timer()/ add_timer(). mod_timer_pending() does not rearm an inactive timer, so we don't need the conntrack lock anymore to make sure we don't accidentally rearm a timer of a conntrack which is in the process of being destroyed. With this change, we don't need to take the global lock anymore at all, counter updates can be performed under the per-conntrack lock.
