[PATCH 57/64] netfilter: conntrack: Use struct_group() to zero struct nf_conn

[Kees Cook]

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memset(), avoid intentionally writing across
neighboring fields.

Replace the empty __nfct_init_offset member with a struct_group() to
mark the region of struct nf_conn that should be initialized to zero,
allowing memset() to correctly reason about the size of the write.
