netfilter: nf_conntrack: extend with extra stat counter
I suspect an unfortunatly series of events occuring under a DDoS attack, in function __nf_conntrack_find() nf_contrack_core.c. Adding a stats counter to see if the search is restarted too often. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
