Perhaps conntrackd ba be used in the online mode so the kernel connection 
tables are always in sync between both nodes. So no master/slave RA 
nescessary.

A multistate RA is only needed if the conntrackd is used in offline more so 
conection tables received from the other node have to be published into the 
kernel during the failover.

Jsut my 2 cents.
