I've been having a look at this patchset several times since last
week. The logic that it follows to split changes into patches is not
correct. This breaks the compilation of my tree since patch 2 until
the entire patchset is applied.

This has to start by one patch that adds the basic infrastructure to
register the layer 3 and 4 conntrack timeout per-net support and it
prepares the per-protocol per-net support. This implies to
propagate the minimal set of changes to make sure it compiles, ie.
modify clients to use the new interface to register init_net.

Then, follow-up per-protocol patches that use the new infrastructure
implement the per-protocol support. All this without breaking the
compilation of my tree between patches.

I'm all for fixing the existing unfinished container support for
Netfilter, but this needs to be done appropriately.
