ipt_CLUSTERIP users might hit this annoying printk, if they forgot an
"iptables -I INPUT -m state --state INVALID -j DROP" before CLUSTERIP
rule. We could use net_ratelimit() here, or not log the message at all.
I chose to log it once per config.

I think that this should be converted to pr_debug() instead, there's
also another reference to "unknown protocol" that should be converted as
well.

I think the FIXME could also be removed, we *do* drop invalid
packets in CLUSTERIP.
