[patch 30/46] netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix ICMP/ICMPv6 timeoutsysctls on big-endian

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Jan 22 2009 - 20:32:19 EST


2.6.28-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@xxxxxxxxx>

Upstream commit 71320af:

An old bug crept back into the ICMP/ICMPv6 conntrack protocols: the timeout
values are defined as unsigned longs, the sysctl's maxsize is set to
sizeof(unsigned int). Use unsigned int for the timeout values as in the
other conntrack protocols.
