[Samba] Bad zone problem after join, seize, demote

I'm testing to a seamless upgrade from 4.3.11 to 4.8.3 on my test setup. 
Database migrating from 4.3.11 was successful. After "samba-tool 
dbdcheck --cross-ncs --fix --yes", 4.8.3 was launching ok except 
replication (4.3.11 to 4.8.3 : WERR_BADFILE). After demoting older ones 
and seize (transfer doesn't work) all roles to 4.8.3, dns (bind_dlz) 
service won't start anymore due to the bad zone error.

Before demoting and stopping services (samba and bind) on 4.3 DC's, 
samba_dnsupdate and dns service was working on new 4.8.3.

I have 10+ subdomains with reverse dns records. These zones were 
probably added using RSAT DNS tool in the past. If I did something wrong 
during join & demote, it would be nice to know if I have any option 
except deleting/re-adding all subdomain dns records in order to make dns 
service work again.
