netfilter: nf_tables: flush pending destroy work before netlink notifier
Destroy work waits for the RCU grace period then it releases the objects with no mutex held. All releases objects follow this path for transactions, therefore, order is guaranteed and references to top-level objects in the hierarchy remain valid. However, netlink notifier might interfer with pending destroy work. rcu_barrier() is not correct because objects are not release via RCU callback. Flush destroy work before releasing objects from netlink notifier path.
