Subject: NULL pointer dereferences with 4.14.27

I've put 4.14.27 this morning in this machine and in about 2h it started
showing null dereferences identical to the following one. There were several of
them, with about 1/2h of interval. Strangely it continued to work and I saw no
other anomalies. I've just reverted to 4.14.26.

It only happened in this machine, which has a net traffic of several Gb/s and
thousands of simultaneous connections.
