The retrying after an allocation failure is not necessary anymore
since we're holding the mutex the entire time, for the same
reason the double allocation race can't happen anymore.

Now that we don't use nf_conntrack_lock anymore but a single mutex for
all protocol handling, no need to release and grab it again for sysctl
registration.

Remove ugly special-casing of nf_conntrack_l4proto_generic, all it
wants is its sysctl tables registered, so do that explicitly in an
init function and move the remaining protocol initialization and
cleanup code to nf_conntrack_proto.c as well.

The protocol lookups done by nf_conntrack are already protected by RCU,
there is no need to keep taking nf_conntrack_lock for registration
and unregistration. Switch to a mutex.

No caller checks the return value, and since its usually called within the
module unload path there's nothing a module could do about errors anyway,
so BUG on invalid conditions and return void.

Replace preempt_{enable,disable} based RCU by proper use of the
RCU API and add missing rcu_read_lock/rcu_read_unlock calls in
all paths not obviously only used within packet process context
(nfnetlink_conntrack).

- move EXPORT_SYMBOL next to exported symbol
- use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL since this is what the original code used

Add helper functions for sysctl registration with optional instantiating
of common path elements (like net/netfilter) and use it for support for
automatic registation of conntrack protocol sysctls.

Rename 'struct nf_conntrack_protocol' to 'struct nf_conntrack_l4proto' in
order to help distinguish it from 'struct nf_conntrack_l3proto'. It gets
rather confusing with 'nf_conntrack_protocol'.
