Allow modifying attributes of the conntrack associated with a packet
without first requesting ct data via CFG_F_CONNTRACK or extra
nfnetlink_conntrack socket.

Also remove unneded rcu_read_lock; the entire function is already
protected by rcu.

Applied, thanks.

Indeed, that code runs on call_rcu from nfnetlink.
