[PATCH nf] netfilter: nf_tables: avoid false-postive lockdep splat

[Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>]

There are reports wrt lockdep splat in nftables, e.g.:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 31416 at net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:622
lockdep_nfnl_nft_mutex_not_held+0x28/0x38 [nf_tables]
...

These are caused by an earlier, unrelated bug such as a n ABBA deadlock
in a different subsystem.
In such an event, lockdep is disabled and lockdep_is_held returns true
unconditionally.  This then causes the WARN() in nf_tables.

Make the WARN conditional on lockdep still active to avoid this.
