netfilter: nf_conntrack_bridge: register inet conntrack for bridge This patch enables IPv4 and IPv6 conntrack from the bridge to deal with local traffic. Hence, packets that are passed up to the local input path are confirmed later on from the {ipv4,ipv6}_confirm() hooks. For packets leaving the IP stack (ie. output path), fragmentation occurs after the inet postrouting hook. Therefore, the bridge local out and postrouting bridge hooks see fragments with conntrack objects, which is inconsistent. In this case, we could defragment again from the bridge output hook, but this is expensive. The recommended filtering spot for outgoing locally generated traffic leaving through the bridge interface is to use the classic IPv4/IPv6 output hook, which comes earlier.
