5.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 02c6c24402bf1c1e986899c14ba22a10b510916b upstream.
Use maybe_get_net() since GC workqueue might race with netns exit path.
Fixes: 5f68718b34a5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: GC transaction API to avoid race with control plane")
