5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
3f0465a9ef02 ("netfilter: nf_tables: dynamically allocate hooks per
net_device in flowtables") reworks flowtable support to allow for
dynamic allocation of hooks, which implicitly fixes the following
bogus EBUSY in transaction:
delete flowtable
add flowtable # same flowtable with same devices, it hits EBUSY
This patch does not exist in any tree, but it fixes this issue for
-stable Linux kernel 5.4
