[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_expect: avoid useless list walking
Don't walk the list when unexpecting an expectation, we already have a reference and the timer check is enough to guarantee that it still is on the list. This comment suggests that it was copied there by mistake from expectation eviction: /* choose the oldest expectation to evict */ Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
