The patch fdb8e12cc2cc ("netfilter: ipset: fix performance regression in swap operation") missed to add the calls to gc cancellations at the error path of create operations and at module unload. Also, because the half of the destroy operations now executed by a function registered by call_rcu(), neither NFNL_SUBSYS_IPSET mutex or rcu read lock is held and therefore the checking of them results false warnings.
