From: Gao Feng <fgao@xxxxxxxxxx> The expect check function __nf_ct_expect_check() asks the master_help is necessary. So it is unnecessary to go ahead in ctnetlink_alloc_expect when there is no help. Actually the commit bc01befdcf3e ("netfilter: ctnetlink: add support for user-space expectation helpers") permits ctnetlink create one expect even though there is no master help. But the latter commit 3d058d7bc2c5 ("netfilter: rework user-space expectation helper support") disables it again.
