netfilter: nf_tables: can't schedule in nft_chain_validate
[ Upstream commit 314c82841602a111c04a7210c21dc77e0d560242 ]
Can be called via nft set element list iteration, which may acquire
rcu and/or bh read lock (depends on set type).
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:3353
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 1232, name: nft
preempt_count: 0, expected: 0
RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 0
2 locks held by nft/1232:
#0: ffff8881180e3ea8 (&nft_net->commit_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: nf_tables_valid_genid
#1: ffffffff83f5f540 (rcu_read_lock){....}-{1:2}, at: rcu_lock_acquire
Call Trace:
nft_chain_validate
nft_lookup_validate_setelem
nft_pipapo_walk
nft_lookup_validate
nft_chain_validate
nft_immediate_validate
nft_chain_validate
nf_tables_validate
nf_tables_abort
No choice but to move it to nf_tables_validate().
