[PATCH net 8/9] netfilter: nf_tables: GC transaction race with netns dismantle

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
Date: 2023-08-15 22:30:56
Also in: netfilter-devel
Subsystem: netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

Use maybe_get_net() since GC workqueue might race with netns exit path.

Fixes: 5f68718b34a5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: GC transaction API to avoid race with control plane")
