netfilter: conntrack: nf_ct_gre_keymap_flush() removal

nf_ct_gre_keymap_flush() is useless.
It is called from nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list() only and tries to remove
nf_ct_gre_keymap entries from pernet gre keymap list. Though:
a) at this point the list should already be empty, all its entries were
deleted during the conntracks cleanup, because
nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list() executes nf_ct_iterate_cleanup(kill_all)
before nf_conntrack_proto_pernet_fini():
 nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list
  +- nf_ct_iterate_cleanup
  |   nf_ct_put
  |    nf_conntrack_put
  |     nf_conntrack_destroy
  |      destroy_conntrack
  |       destroy_gre_conntrack
  |        nf_ct_gre_keymap_destroy
  `- nf_conntrack_proto_pernet_fini
      nf_ct_gre_keymap_flush

b) Let's say we find that the keymap list is not empty. This means netns
still has a conntrack associated with gre, in which case we should not free
its memory, because this will lead to a double free and related crashes.
However I doubt it could have gone unnoticed for years, obviously
this does not happen in real life. So I think we can remove
both nf_ct_gre_keymap_flush() and nf_conntrack_proto_pernet_fini().
