Hi Holger,

I like patches 1/3 and 2/3, they are nice cleanups.

Some comments regarding this patch.

If you only set indev/outdev once we can skip the conntrack extension
by passing the skb to nf_ct_deliver_cached_events and include this
information in the conntrack events. That would not allow to dump the
device from conntrack dumps though. I still have concerns with this
approach as this doesn't seem to cover the scenario in which the
in/outdev changes.

Regards.
