[PATCH nf,v2 2/3] netfilter: nf_tables: join hook list via splice_list_rcu() in commit phase

[Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>]

Publish new hooks in the list into the basechain/flowtable using
splice_list_rcu() to ensure netlink dump list traversal via rcu is safe
while concurrent ruleset update is going on.

Fixes: 78d9f48f7f44 ("netfilter: nf_tables: add devices to existing flowtable")
Fixes: b9703ed44ffb ("netfilter: nf_tables: support for adding new devices to an existing netdev chain")
Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

v2: no changes, requires list_splice_rcu() in v2
