The expectation helper field is mostly unused. As a result, the netfilter codebase relies on accessing the helper through exp->master. Always set on the expectation helper field so it can be used to reach the helper. nf_ct_expect_init() is called from packet path where the skb owns the ct object, therefore accessing exp->master for the newly created expectation is safe. This saves a lot of updates in all callsites to pass the ct object as parameter to nf_ct_expect_init(). This is a preparation patches for follow up fixes.
