[PATCH net v2] net: sched: act_ct: fix possible refcount leak in tcf_ct_init()

From: Hangyu Hua
Date: Thu Sep 22 2022 - 22:01:12 EST


nf_ct_put need to be called to put the refcount got by tcf_ct_fill_params
to avoid possible refcount leak when tcf_ct_flow_table_get fails.

Fixes: c34b961a2492 ("net/sched: act_ct: Create nf flow table per zone")
Signed-off-by: Hangyu Hua <hbh25y@xxxxxxxxx>

v2: use a new label to put the refcount.
