This is nice as it applies to error path only, though the second cache
fetch is prone to race conditions. Did you consider retrying the whole
transaction with beefed-up cache in error case? I was about to mention
how it nicely integrates with transaction refresh in ERESTART case, but
then realized this is iptables code and nft doesn't retry in that case?!

Cheers, Phil
