Regression in netfilter code under Xen

[Boris Ostrovsky]

We have a regression due to (5195c14c8: netfilter: conntrack: fix race 
in __nf_conntrack_confirm against get_next_corpse). I have not been able 
to reproduce this on baremetal but dom0 crashes reliably after a few 
seconds of idle time. This doesn't appear to be dependent on Xen version 
--- I saw it on at least a 4.2 and unstable).

I don't know much about networking (and will be out for most of the rest 
of the week) so I wonder whether anyone has any ideas. The stack is below.


Thanks.
