We found that pulling below patch into stable trees without also pulling

commit 9c3f3794926a997b1cab6c42480ff300efa2d162
Author: Liping Zhang <zlpnobody@gmail.com>

    netfilter: nf_ct_ext: fix possible panic after nf_ct_extend_unregister

will result in a regression, at least in 4.4.y[1]. Stable maintainers who picked
up below patch might want to consider picking up above fix.
