netfilter: nf_tables: fix GC transaction races with netns and netlink…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
… event exit path

[ Upstream commit 6a33d8b ]

Netlink event path is missing a synchronization point with GC
transactions. Add GC sequence number update to netns release path and
netlink event path, any GC transaction losing race will be discarded.

Fixes: 5f68718 ("netfilter: nf_tables: GC transaction API to avoid race with control plane")
