commit 0b2f3212b5 upstream.
To avoid allocation of the conntrack extension area when possible,
the default behaviour was changed to only allocate the event extension
if a userspace program is subscribed to a notification group.
Problem is that while 'conntrack -E' does enable the event allocation
behind the scenes, 'conntrack -E expect' does not: no expectation events
are delivered unless user sets
"net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_events" back to 1 (always on).
Fix the autodetection to also consider EXP type group.
We need to track the 6 event groups (3+3, new/update/destroy for events and
for expectations each) independently, else we'd disable events again
if an expectation group becomes empty while there is still an active
event group.
