These two sysctls were added because the hardcoded defaults (2 minutes,
tcp, 30 seconds, udp) turned out to be too low for some setups.
They appeared in 5.14-rc1 so it should be fine to remove it again.
Marcelo convinced me that there should be no difference between a flow
that was offloaded vs. a flow that was not wrt. timeout handling.
Thus the default is changed to those for TCP established and UDP stream,
5 days and 120 seconds, respectively.
Marcelo also suggested to account for the timeout value used for the
offloading, this avoids increase beyond the value in the conntrack-sysctl
and will also instantly expire the conntrack entry with altered sysctls.
Example:
nf_conntrack_udp_timeout_stream=60
nf_flowtable_udp_timeout=60
This will remove offloaded udp flows after one minute, rather than two.
When flow transitions back from offload to software, also clear the
ASSURED bit -- this allows conntrack to early-expire the entry in case
the table is full.
The existing TCP code sets the ASSURED bit again when a valid ACK is seen
while conntrack is in ESTABLISHED state. UDP re-sets on next packet.

Pablo, please wait a bit before applying so that Oz, Paul and Marcelo
have time to ack/nack this.
