[PATCH 4.4 199/312] netfilter: nf_tables: destroy the set if fail to add transaction

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri May 08 2020 - 08:44:25 EST


From: Liping Zhang <zlpnobody@xxxxxxxxx>

commit c17c3cdff10b9f59ef1244a14604f10949f17117 upstream.

When the memory is exhausted, then we will fail to add the NFT_MSG_NEWSET
transaction. In such case, we should destroy the set before we free it.
