[NETFILTER] ctnetlink: allow userspace to change TCP state
This patch adds the ability of changing the state a TCP connection. I know that this must be used with care but it's required to provide a complete conntrack creation via conntrack_netlink. So I'll document this aspect on the upcoming docs. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
