SubjectRe: [PATCH] netfilter: Fix wastful cleanup check for unconfirmed conn in get_next_corpse
From
Sorry. I get it is not an issue after read the codes again.
The unconfirmed conn list check is only checked once in the current codes.
Because it will be checked only when no matched conntracks found in
function get_next_corpse.

Then I think current codes may confuse the reader. I am an example.
So could my changes be as the enhancement ?

Best Regards
Feng
