Subject[patch 19/37] nf_conntrack: padding breaks conntrack hash on ARM
2.6.25-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------
From: Philip Craig <philipc@snapgear.com>
[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: padding breaks conntrack hash on ARM

Upstream commit 443a70d50:

commit 0794935e "[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: optimize hash_conntrack()"
results in ARM platforms hashing uninitialised padding.  This padding
doesn't exist on other architectures.

Fix this by replacing NF_CT_TUPLE_U_BLANK() with memset() to ensure
everything is initialised.  There were only 4 bytes that
NF_CT_TUPLE_U_BLANK() wasn't clearing anyway (or 12 bytes on ARM).
