Public bug reported:

* Explain the bug(s)
 
CT state not reset when packet redirected to different port, thus
making it possible to match rules with wrong ct state on the other port.

* brief explanation of fixes
 
Reset ct state when redirecting to a different port.
The sauce fix being reverted and should apply the upstream fix to catch all 
cases correctly.
 
* How to test
 
tc qdisc add dev veth0 clsact
# The same with "action mirred egress mirror dev veth1" or "action mirred 
ingress redirect dev veth1"
tc filter add dev veth0 egress chain 1 protocol ip flower ct_state +trk action 
mirred ingress mirror dev veth1
tc filter add dev veth0 egress chain 0 protocol ip flower ct_state -inv action 
ct commit action goto chain 1
tc qdisc add dev veth1 clsact
tc filter add dev veth1 ingress chain 0 protocol ip flower ct_state +trk action 
drop

ping <remove ip via veth0> &
tc -s filter show dev veth1 ingress

With command 'tc -s filter show', we can find the pkts were dropped on veth1.
 
* What it could break.
 
Wrong matching. Traffic failure when redirecting to different ports and there 
are more
rules to match on the other port.
