I built a Xenial test kernel with commit 
596cf3fe5854fe2b1703b0466ed6bf9cfb83c91e.  The test kernel can be downloaded 
from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1793753

Can you test this kernel and see if it resolves this bug?

If you are unable to test, could you provide the commands that you found
to reproduce this bug?

Title:
  kernel panic - null pointer dereference on ipset operations

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Hi,

  We've experienced crashes on machines running iptables using ipsets.
  We could get a trace from the console on one of them (attached file 
kernel-trace.txt).

  On these machines, some ipset commands are automatically run to update the 
sets, and/or to dump them (ipset restore, swap, delete ... / ipset save).
  We strongly suspect the panic is happening due to a race when ipset updates 
happen at the same time as a dump.

  These machines are running xenial. Before the crash, they were on
  4.4.0-116-generic #140-Ubuntu, but then rebooted into
  4.4.0-135-generic #161-Ubuntu.

  I have an ipset save running in loops on one of these machines to try
  and reproduce quicker.
