I cannot easily verify that and I didn't manage to reproduce it outside
our production environment yet.

In any case, that commit looks very plausible. It also tells me that the
kernel output likely is a red herring. The warning should not be causing
a kernel hang - especially when the kernel manages to persist that
output to the system journal on disk. The nftables autopkgtest likely
does more things and might be crashing the kernel via other means.

Given that we also run the tests on amd64, this likely requires an arm64
kvm environment for reproducing.

Unless there is more information at a later point, I suggest that you
close this report whenever the mentioned commit is included.

Helmut
