My $.02 I do not see 4.4 used much in my circles. We do not use it
anywhere at McAfee.

This is a backport of a 5.1rc patchset:
  https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/1029418/

Which was backported into 4.19:
  https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/1081619/

and into 4.14:
  https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/1089651/


This 4.9 patchset is very close to the 4.14 patchset above
(cherry-picks from 4.14 were almost clean).

FYI: I have a patchset that backports these into 4.4, but things got
much hairier
there, as I needed to backport three additional netfilter patches. So I'm not
going to send the patchset to the lists unless there is a real need and somebody
with enough knowledge of netfitler volunteers to review/test it (I tested
that IP defrag works, but there are netfilter-related pieces that
I understand little about).
