This is a revert of7b1957b049("netfilter: nf_defrag_ipv4: use net_generic infra") and a partial revert of8b0adbe3e3("netfilter: nf_defrag_ipv6: use net_generic infra"). If conntrack is builtin and kernel is booted with: nf_conntrack.enable_hooks=1 .... kernel will fail to boot due to a NULL deref in nf_defrag_ipv4_enable(): Its called before the ipv4 defrag initcall is made, so net_generic() returns NULL. To resolve this, move the user refcount back to struct net so calls to those functions are possible even before their initcalls have run. Fixes:7b1957b049("netfilter: nf_defrag_ipv4: use net_generic infra") Fixes:8b0adbe3e3("netfilter: nf_defrag_ipv6: use net_generic infra").

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
