Do you mean the commit e5e693ab49a95e1994979972eea224eefa81eba9 "netfilter:
conntrack: Only need first 4 bytes to get l4proto ports"?
Sorry, I could not figure out why it would break the rule, and cause issue.

Let's look at one change for TCP of that commit as following

diff --git a/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c
b/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c
index 70c8381..4abe9e1 100644
--- a/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c
+++ b/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c
@@ -282,8 +282,8 @@ static bool tcp_pkt_to_tuple(const struct sk_buff *skb,
unsigned int dataoff,
        const struct tcphdr *hp;
        struct tcphdr _hdr;

-       /* Actually only need first 8 bytes. */
-       hp = skb_header_pointer(skb, dataoff, 8, &_hdr);
+       /* Actually only need first 4 bytes to get ports. */
+       hp = skb_header_pointer(skb, dataoff, 4, &_hdr);
        if (hp == NULL)
                return false;

The skb_header_pointer only copies the data, not make the data linear.
So I think it is ok after 4 bytes instead of 8 bytes.
It only affect the local variable, not the skb.

I also check the other codes of Netfilter.

grep -in skb_network_header * in nf/net/netfilter and
nf/net/ipv4(6)/netfilter/
nf_nat_helper.c:41:     data = skb_network_header(skb) + dataoff;
nf_tables_core.c:99:            ptr = skb_network_header(skb) +
pkt->xt.thoff;
xt_TCPMSS.c:104:        tcph = (struct tcphdr *)(skb_network_header(skb) +
tcphoff);
xt_TCPMSS.c:163:                tcph = (struct tcphdr
*)(skb_network_header(skb) + tcphoff);
xt_TCPOPTSTRIP.c:54:    tcph = (struct tcphdr *)(skb_network_header(skb) +
tcphoff);
arpt_mangle.c:23:       arpptr = skb_network_header(skb) + sizeof(*arp);

all of them make sure the skb is linear, except the nf_tables_core.c which
use the skb_tail_pointer to exclude the non-linear data.

So there is only nf_ct_tcp_seqadj_set which need fixed.

Best Regards
Feng
