AFAICT 'nat' is zero here because bit 2 of i->features is zero:

static inline int
device_cmp(struct ip_conntrack *i, void *ifindex)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_NF_NAT_NEEDED
        struct nf_conn_nat *nat = nfct_nat(i);
#endif
        int ret;

        read_lock_bh(&masq_lock);
#ifdef CONFIG_NF_NAT_NEEDED
        ret = (nat->masq_index == (int)(long)ifindex);  <===============
#else
        ret = (i->nat.masq_index == (int)(long)ifindex);
#endif
        read_unlock_bh(&masq_lock);

        return ret;
}
