From: Pavel Skripkin <paskripkin@xxxxxxxxx> Syzbot hit use-after-free in nf_tables_dump_sets. The problem was in missing lock protection for nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt. Before commit f102d66b335a ("netfilter: nf_tables: use dedicated mutex to guard transactions") all transactions were serialized by global mutex, but then global mutex was changed to local per netnamespace commit_mutex. This change causes use-after-free bug, when 2 netnamespaces concurently changing nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt without proper locking. Fix it by adding nft_ct_pcpu_mutex and protect all nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt changes with it.
