Excellent ;-> Simple and elegant.

Usable as is  - some minor comments.
First nitpick: The name is not very reflective, how about:
GetMarkFromConntrack or something along those lines?

I would have said that this action is probably also not useful for 
egress qdisc path since skb->mark would already be set. It maybe worth 
checking skb->tc_verd and skipping overhead of nf_conntrack_in() call.
Look at act_mirred for such a check.

Ok, perhaps set tcf_action in (iproute2) user space to TC_ACT_PIPE then 
just return policy->tcf_action here.

Even better is to have a different TC_ACT_XXX returned for failure
vs success... Your success path becomes TC_ACT_PIPE and let the
user program the failure branch optionally. This would allow for 
branching to different actions if success/failure, example:
if mark is found {
    if mark is 0xa redirect to ifb0
    else
      redirect to ifb1
} else
       set mark to 3 then redirect to ifb9

etc.

Not sure if that made sense. I am under the influence of nyquil ;->

cheers,
jamal
