I also had a problem starting DRBD with my Corosync/Pacemaker cluster after upgrading drbd8-utils to 8.4.3.

This is a line from the log file where it is failing:
Apr 24 08:21:02 www6a lrmd: [1183]: info: RA output: (p_drbd_r0:0:start:stderr) Could not connect to 'drbd' generic netlink family
Command 'drbdsetup new-resource r0' terminated with exit code 20

I am running Linux kernel 3.5.0-48 on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS
# uname -a
Linux www6a 3.5.0-48-generic #72~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 11 20:09:08 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

DRBD module was always at version 8.3.13
# cat /proc/drbd
version: 8.3.13 (api:88/proto:86-96)
srcversion: C0F510A918B92928FB51EE3

I was able to fix it by downgrading drbd8-utils again:
# apt-get install drbd8-utils=2:8.3.11-0ubuntu1

Also removing startup scripts:
# update-rc.d -f drbd remove
