netfilter: nf_tables: discard table flag update with pending basechain deletion
commit 1bc83a019bbe268be3526406245ec28c2458a518 upstream.
Hook unregistration is deferred to the commit phase, same occurs with
hook updates triggered by the table dormant flag. When both commands are
combined, this results in deleting a basechain while leaving its hook
still registered in the core.
