netfilter: nf_nat: fix race when unloading protocol modules

following oops was reported:

 [<ffffffffa02febed>] destroy_conntrack+0xbd/0x110 [nf_conntrack]

Happens when a conntrack timeout expires right after first part
of the nat cleanup has completed (bysrc hash removal), but before
part 2 has completed (re-initialization of nat area).

[ destroy callback tries to delete bysrc again ]

Patrick suggested to just remove the affected conntracks -- the
connections won't work properly anyway without nat transformation.

So, lets do that.
