Before the commit 2d72afb34065, __nf_conntrack_confirm() set
'ct->status |= IPS_CONFIRMED;' before check hash, the warning will not
happen, so I put it here.

As you say, the bug came in with 62e7151ae3eb. I will delete this paragraph
in next patch.

Thanks for your suggestion!

Do you mean that ct may be deleted in confirm and return NF_DROP, so we can
not visit it in br_nf_local_in() and need to add 'case NF_DROP:' here?

I cannot find somewhere set skb->_nfct to NULL and return NF_DROP. Can you
give some hints?
