When I grep the config for kernel-ml-4.12.2-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64 I see:

CONFIG_NF_NAT_PROTO_SCTP=y

I note that for earlier kernels (4.4 for example), it was a module:

CONFIG_NF_NAT_PROTO_SCTP=m

So it looks like at some point recently ip_conntrack_proto_sctp has become a boolean and is now built into the kernel and is no longer a loadable module.

From net/netfilter/Kconfig:

config NF_NAT_PROTO_SCTP
    bool
    default NF_NAT && NF_CT_PROTO_SCTP
    depends on NF_NAT && NF_CT_PROTO_SCTP

so is no longer tristate. I'm not sure when the change happened, somewhere between 4.4 and 4.10 (I don't have kernels in between to hand)

Is this affecting something in user space? If so you should probably file a bug upstream at kernel.org?
