[NETFILTER]: return ENOMEM when ip_conntrack_alloc() fails.
This patch fixes the bug which doesn't return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) if it failed to allocate memory space from slab cache. This bug leads to erroneously not dropped packets under stress, and wrong statistic counters ('invalid' is incremented instead of 'drop'). It was introduced during the ctnetlink merge in the net-2.6.14 tree, so no stable or mainline releases affected.
