Except that commit effectively moved that function from
net/netfilter/nf_tables_netdev.c to
include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv4.h while commit c73c24849011
("netfilter: nf_tables_netdev: remove redundant ip_hdr assignment")
removed the assignment in the original file (and has been in your tree
since v4.8-rc7) and that is where I originally actually got a conflict.
Oh, interesting. Why didn't I get the conflict there then?
I'm guessing (but too lazy to actually look up the history), that
David ended up doing that merge and that ends up being why I never saw
a conflict.
Yeah, commit b50afd203a5e ("Merge
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net") actually
merges v4.8 into the net-next tree.
