====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next:

Patch #1 adds ctnetlink support for kernel side filtering for
	 deletions, from Changliang Wu.

Patch #2 updates nft_counter support to Use u64_stats_t,
	 from Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.

Patch #3 uses kmemdup_array() in all xtables frontends,
	 from Yan Zhen.

Patch #4 is a oneliner to use ERR_CAST() in nf_conntrack instead
	 opencoded casting, from Shen Lichuan.

Patch #5 removes unused argument in nftables .validate interface,
	 from Florian Westphal.

Patch #6 is a oneliner to correct a typo in nftables kdoc,
	 from Simon Horman.

Patch #7 fixes missing kdoc in nftables, also from Simon.

Patch #8 updates nftables to handle timeout less than CONFIG_HZ.

Patch #9 rejects element expiration if timeout is zero,
	 otherwise it is silently ignored.

Patch #10 disallows element expiration larger than timeout.

Patch #11 removes unnecessary READ_ONCE annotation while mutex is held.

Patch #12 adds missing READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE annotation in dynset.

Patch #13 annotates data-races around element expiration.

Patch #14 allocates timeout and expiration in one single set element
	  extension, they are tighly couple, no reason to keep them
	  separated anymore.

Patch #15 updates nftables to interpret zero timeout element as never
	  times out. Note that it is already possible to declare sets
	  with elements that never time out but this generalizes to all
	  kind of set with timeouts.

Patch #16 supports for element timeout and expiration updates.
