Taehee Yoo b7f1a16d29 netfilter: nf_flow_table: remove flowtable hook flush routine in netns exit routine
When device is unregistered, flowtable flush routine is called
by notifier_call(nf_tables_flowtable_event). and exit callback of
nftables pernet_operation(nf_tables_exit_net) also has flowtable flush
routine. but when network namespace is destroyed, both notifier_call
and pernet_operation are called. hence flowtable flush routine in
pernet_operation is unnecessary.

test commands:
   %ip netns add vm1
   %ip netns exec vm1 nft add table ip filter
   %ip netns exec vm1 nft add flowtable ip filter w \
	{ hook ingress priority 0\; devices = { lo }\; }
   %ip netns del vm1

splat looks like:

This WARNING means that hook unregisteration is failed because
all flowtables hooks are already unregistered by notifier_call.

Network namespace exit routine guarantees that all devices will be
unregistered first. then, other exit callbacks of pernet_operations
are called. so that removing flowtable flush routine in exit callback of
pernet_operation(nf_tables_exit_net) doesn't make flowtable leak.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
