[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 036/187] netfilter: nf_tables: skip module reference count bump on object updates

[Sasha Levin]

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fd57d0cbe187e93f63777d36e9f49293311d417f ]

Use __nft_obj_type_get() instead, otherwise there is a module reference
counter leak.

Fixes: d62d0ba97b58 ("netfilter: nf_tables: Introduce stateful object update operation")
