This reverts commit 84ba7dd71add ("netfilter: nf_tables: reject nat hook registration if prio is before conntrack") As of commit 9971a514ed2697e ("netfilter: nf_nat: add nat type hooks to nat core") NAT hooks are always called from a fixed chain priority. The priority is only used to order a nat chain wrt. other nat base chains, not arbitrary hook functions. Even INT_MIN will not call the nat hook before conntrack anymore.
