netfilter: nf_nat_masquerade: make async masq_inet6_event handling generic
[ Upstream commit
30db406923b9285a9bac06a6af5e74bd6d0f1d06 ]
masq_inet6_event is called asynchronously from system work queue,
because the inet6 notifier is atomic and nf_iterate_cleanup can sleep.
The ipv4 and device notifiers call nf_iterate_cleanup directly.
This is legal, but these notifiers are called with RTNL mutex held.
A large conntrack table with many devices coming and going will have severe
impact on the system usability, with 'ip a' blocking for several seconds.
This change places the defer code into a helper and makes it more
generic so ipv4 and ifdown notifiers can be converted to defer the
cleanup walk as well in a follow patch.
