netfilter: conntrack: silent a memory leak warning

The following memory leak is false postive:

unreferenced object 0xffff8f37f156fb38 (size 128):

  hex dump (first 32 bytes):

because __krealloc() is not supposed to release the old
memory and it is released later via kfree_rcu(). Since this is
the only external user of __krealloc(), just mark it as not leak
here.
