BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1927246
Currently, tcf_ct_flow_table_restore_skb is exported by act_ct
module, therefore modules using it will have hard-dependency
on act_ct and will require loading it all the time.
This can lead to an unnecessary overhead on systems that do not
use hardware connection tracking action (ct_metadata action) in
the first place.
To relax the hard-dependency between the modules, we unexport this
function and make it a static inline one.
Fixes: 30b0cf90c6dd ("net/sched: act_ct: Support restoring conntrack info on skbs")
