There's the first fix in the queue, I can either drop that one, or
patch on top of it.  Dropping what's in the queue[1] is fine for me.
Below's the backport that Daniel sent over this morning (which applies
if I drop what's in the queue).  Patrick, does that look ok?  I didn't
queue this change yet, as I'd prefer it came either from you or with you
Cc'd so you can ack it.

Revert the nf_reset change that caused so much trouble, drop conntrack
references manually before packets are queued to packet sockets.
