netfilter: nf_tables: revisit chain/object refcounting from elements
Andreas reports that the following incremental update using our commit
protocol doesn't work.
# nft -f incremental-update.nft
delete element ip filter client_to_any { 10.180.86.22 : goto CIn_1 }
delete chain ip filter CIn_1
... Error: Could not process rule: Device or resource busy
The existing code is not well-integrated into the commit phase protocol,
since element deletions do not result in refcount decrement from the
preparation phase. This results in bogus EBUSY errors like the one
above.
Two new functions come with this patch:
* nft_set_elem_activate() function is used from the abort path, to
restore the set element refcounting on objects that occurred from
the preparation phase.
* nft_set_elem_deactivate() that is called from nft_del_setelem() to
decrement set element refcounting on objects from the preparation
phase in the commit protocol.
The nft_data_uninit() has been renamed to nft_data_release() since this
function does not uninitialize any data store in the data register,
instead just releases the references to objects. Moreover, a new
function nft_data_hold() has been introduced to be used from
nft_set_elem_activate().
