[ Upstream commit b25a31bf0ca091aa8bdb9ab329b0226257568bbe ]

->release_ops() callback releases resources and this is used in error path.
If nf_tables_newrule() fails after ->select_ops(), it should release
resources. but it can not call ->destroy() because that should be called
after ->init().
At this point, ->release_ops() should be used for releasing resources.

Test commands:
   modprobe -rv xt_tcpudp
   iptables-nft -I INPUT -m tcp   <-- error command
   lsmod

Result:
   Module                  Size  Used by
   xt_tcpudp              20480  2      <-- it should be 0
