netfilter: nf_tables: cache device name in flowtable object
Devices going away have to grab the nfnl_lock from the netdev event path to avoid races with control plane updates. However, netlink dumps in netfilter do not hold nfnl_lock mutex. Cache the device name into the objects to avoid an use-after-free situation for a device that is going away. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
