From: Florian Westphal fw@strlen.de Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2021 21:43:40 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: arp_tables: add pre_exit hook for table unregister

Same problem that also existed in iptables/ip(6)tables, when arptable_filter is removed there is no longer a wait period before the table/ruleset is free'd.

Unregister the hook in pre_exit, then remove the table in the exit function. This used to work correctly because the old nf_hook_unregister API did unconditional synchronize_net.

The per-net hook unregister function uses call_rcu instead.
