From: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit bcb74e132a76ce0502bb33d5b65533a4ed72d159 ] When switching zones or network namespaces without doing a ct clear in between, it is now leaking a reference to the old ct entry. That's because tcf_ct_skb_nfct_cached() returns false and tcf_ct_flow_table_lookup() may simply overwrite it. The fix is to, as the ct entry is not reusable, free it already at tcf_ct_skb_nfct_cached().
