'lookup' is always followed by 'add'.
Merge both and make the list-walk part of nf_conncount_add().
This also avoids one unneeded unlock/re-lock pair.
Extra care needs to be taken in count_tree, as we only hold rcu
read lock, i.e. we can only insert to an existing tree node after
acquiring its lock and making sure it has a nonzero count.
As a zero count should be rare, just fall back to insert_tree()
(which acquires tree lock).
This issue and its solution were pointed out by Shawn Bohrer
during patch review.

This patch is originally from Florian Westphal.
This patch does the following 3 main tasks.
1) Add list lock to 'struct nf_conncount_list' so that we can
alter the lists containing the individual connections without holding the
main tree lock. It would be useful when we only need to add/remove to/from
a list without allocate/remove a node in the tree. With this change, we
update nft_connlimit accordingly since we longer need to maintain
a list lock in nft_connlimit now.
2) Use RCU for the initial tree search to improve tree look up performance.
3) Add a garbage collection worker. This worker is schedule when there
are excessive tree node that needed to be recycled.
Moreover,the rbnode reclaim logic is moved from search tree to insert tree
to avoid race condition.

This patch is originally from Florian Westphal.
This patch does the following three tasks.
It applies the same early exit technique for nf_conncount_lookup().
Since now we keep the number of connections in 'struct nf_conncount_list',
we no longer need to return the count in nf_conncount_lookup().
Moreover, we expose the garbage collection function nf_conncount_gc_list()
for nft_connlimit.

Original patch is from Florian Westphal.
This patch switches from hlist to plain list to store the list of
connections with the same filtering key in nf_conncount. With the
plain list, we can insert new connections at the tail, so over time
the beginning of list holds long-running connections and those are
expired, while the newly creates ones are at the end.
Later on, we could probably move checked ones to the end of the list,
so the next run has higher chance to reclaim stale entries in the front.

Currently, we use check_hlist() for garbage colleciton. However, we
use the ‘zone’ from the counted entry to query the existence of
existing entries in the hlist. This could be wrong when they are in
different zones, and this patch fixes this issue.

This features which allows you to limit the maximum number of
connections per arbitrary key. The connlimit expression is stateful,
therefore it can be used from meters to dynamically populate a set, this
provides a mapping to the iptables' connlimit match. This patch also
comes that allows you define static connlimit policies.
This extension depends on the nf_conncount infrastructure.
