I believe xt_owner only is valid on the OUT path
(LOCAL_OUT and POST_ROUTING), so it shouldnt be an issue.

I fixed netfilter modules in 

commit 0626af3139572610b56376580d11eb65d45d9dd7

    netfilter: take care of timewait sockets
    
    Sami Farin reported crashes in xt_LOG because it assumes skb->sk is a
    full blown socket.
    
    Since (41063e9 ipv4: Early TCP socket demux), we can have skb->sk
    pointing to a timewait socket.
    
    Same fix is needed in nfnetlink_log.
