Re: [PATCH nf] net/sched: act_ct: set net pointer before publishing flowtable
From: Xuanqiang Luo

nf_flow_table_init() adds the flowtable to the global flowtables list.
However, tcf_ct_flow_table_get() sets the table's network namespace only
after that call, leaving a window where the published table has a NULL
namespace pointer.
The window does exist, but can any existing code path actually read
flowtable->net during this window? Could you also describe that path
in the commit message?
Thanks,
