The reference count held for skb needs to be released when the skb's
nfct pointer is cleared regardless of if nf_ct_delete() is called or
not.
Failing to release the skb's reference cound led to deferred conntrack
cleanup spinning forever within nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list() when
cleaning up a network namespace:

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
