From: Gao Feng <redacted>

When memory is exhausted, nfct_seqadj_ext_add may fail to add the seqadj
extension. But the function nf_ct_seqadj_init doesn't check if get valid
seqadj pointer by the nfct_seqadj, while other functions perform the
sanity check.

So the system would be panic when nfct_seqadj_ext_add failed.

 v2: Remove the unnessary seqadj check in nf_ct_seq_adjust
 v1: Inital patch
