netfilter: Fix kernel panic with REDIRECT target.

This patch fixes a NAT regression in 2.6.23, resulting in a
crash when a connection is NATed and matches a conntrack
helper after NAT.

Please apply, thanks.
[NETFILTER]: Fix kernel panic with REDIRECT target.

Upstream commit 1f305323

When connection tracking entry (nf_conn) is about to copy itself it can
have some of its extension users (like nat) as being already freed and
thus not required to be copied.

Actually looking at this function I suspect it was copied from
nf_nat_setup_info() and thus bug was introduced.

Report and testing from David <david@unsolicited.net>.

[ Patrick McHardy states:

        I now understand whats happening:

        - new connection is allocated without helper
        - connection is REDIRECTed to localhost
        - nf_nat_setup_info adds NAT extension, but doesn't initialize it yet
        - nf_conntrack_alter_reply performs a helper lookup based on the
           new tuple, finds the SIP helper and allocates a helper extension,
           causing reallocation because of too little space
        - nf_nat_move_storage is called with the uninitialized nat extension

        So your fix is entirely correct, thanks a lot :)  ]
