From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 552705a3650bbf46a22b1adedc1b04181490fc36 upstream.
While the rhashtable set gc runs asynchronously, a race allows it to
collect elements from anonymous sets with timeouts while it is being
released from the commit path.
Mingi Cho originally reported this issue in a different path in 6.1.x
with a pipapo set with low timeouts which is not possible upstream since
7395dfacfff6 ("netfilter: nf_tables: use timestamp to check for set
element timeout").
Fix this by setting on the dead flag for anonymous sets to skip async gc
in this case.
According to 08e4c8c5919f ("netfilter: nf_tables: mark newset as dead on
transaction abort"), Florian plans to accelerate abort path by releasing
objects via workqueue, therefore, this sets on the dead flag for abort
path too.
