[SRU][F][PATCH v2 1/1] netfilter: nf_tables: use timestamp to check for set element timeout

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo at netfilter.org>

commit 7395dfacfff65e9938ac0889dafa1ab01e987d15 upstream

Add a timestamp field at the beginning of the transaction, store it
in the nftables per-netns area.

Update set backend .insert, .deactivate and sync gc path to use the
timestamp, this avoids that an element expires while control plane
transaction is still unfinished.

.lookup and .update, which are used from packet path, still use the
current time to check if the element has expired. And .get path and dump
also since this runs lockless under rcu read size lock. Then, there is
async gc which also needs to check the current time since it runs
asynchronously from a workqueue.

[ NB: rbtree GC updates has been excluded because GC is asynchronous. ]

Fixes: c3e1b005ed1c ("netfilter: nf_tables: add set element timeout support")
