1) AF_PACKET bind() can leak a netdevice reference, from Wei Yongjun.

2) netem erroneously calls vfree() under spinlock and soft interrupt
disable, fix from Eric Dumazet.

3) ctnetlink_get_expect() can make nfnetlink loop forever when it
returns -EAGAIN in situations where it should not, fix from
Pablo Neira Ayuso.

4) Autoloading connection tracking helpers cannot be done with
spinlocks held because that operation sleeps, fix also from Pablo.

Please pull, thanks a lot!
