netfilter: nf_tables: avoid false-positive lockdep splat on rule deletion
[ Upstream commit 9adbb419 ] On rule delete we get: WARNING: suspicious RCU usage net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:3420 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!! 1 lock held by iptables/134: #0: ffff888008c4fcc8 (&nft_net->commit_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: nf_tables_valid_genid (include/linux/jiffies.h:101) nf_tables Code is fine, no other CPU can change the list because we're holding transaction mutex. Pass the needed lockdep annotation to the iterator and fix two comments for functions that are no longer restricted to rcu-only context. This is enough to resolve rule delete, but there are several other missing annotations, added in followup-patches.
