[Impact]
An unprivileged user may trigger a race condition in the netfilter ipset
subsystem, leading to a local denial of service.

[Test case]
A PoC was tested and reliably triggered a crash. After the fix, no crash
is observed anymore.

[Backport]
Only focal required a simple context fixup.

[Potential regression]
netfilter users using ipsets may find regressions.
