It looks like the following kernel commit got rid of the 'owner' field:

    netfilter: remove hook owner refcounting                                    

    since commit 8405a8fff3f8 ("netfilter: nf_qeueue: Drop queue entries on     
    nf_unregister_hook") all pending queued entries are discarded.              

    So we can simply remove all of the owner handling -- when module is         
    removed it also needs to unregister all its hooks.

It looks like the following kernel commit changed the 'hook' field:

    netfilter: turn NF_HOOK into an inline function                             

    A recent change to the dst_output handling caused a new warning             
    when the call to NF_HOOK() is the only used of a local variable             
    passed as 'dev', and CONFIG_NETFILTER is disabled:                          

    net/ipv6/ip6_output.c: In function 'ip6_output':                            
    net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:135:21: warning: unused variable 'dev'
[-Wunused-vari\
able]                                                                           

    The reason for this is that the NF_HOOK macro in this case does             
    not reference the variable at all, and the call to dev_net(dev)             
    got removed from the ip6_output function. To avoid that warning now         
    and in the future, this changes the macro into an equivalent                
    inline function, which tells the compiler that the variable is              
    passed correctly but still unused.                                          

    The dn_forward function apparently had the same problem in                  
    the past and added a local workaround that no longer works                  
    with the inline function. In order to avoid a regression, we                
    have to also remove the #ifdef from decnet in the same patch.

It looks like these changes first appeared in kernel v4.4-rc1.
