2) 24138933b97b ("netfilter: nf_tables: don't skip expired elements during walk")
3) 5f68718b34a5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: GC transaction API to avoid race with control plane")
4) f6c383b8c31a ("netfilter: nf_tables: adapt set backend to use GC transaction API")
5) c92db3030492 ("netfilter: nft_set_hash: mark set element as dead when deleting from packet path")
6) a2dd0233cbc4 ("netfilter: nf_tables: remove busy mark and gc batch API")
7) 7845914f45f0 ("netfilter: nf_tables: don't fail inserts if duplicate has expired")
8) 6a33d8b73dfa ("netfilter: nf_tables: fix GC transaction races with netns and netlink event exit path")
9) 02c6c24402bf ("netfilter: nf_tables: GC transaction race with netns dismantle")

11) 8357bc946a2a ("netfilter: nf_tables: use correct lock to protect gc_list")
12) 8e51830e29e1 ("netfilter: nf_tables: defer gc run if previous batch is still pending")
13) 2ee52ae94baa ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: skip sync GC for new elements in this transaction")
14) 96b33300fba8 ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: use read spinlock to avoid datapath contention")
15) 6d365eabce3c ("netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: stop GC iteration if GC transaction allocation fails")
16) b079155faae9 ("netfilter: nft_set_hash: try later when GC hits EAGAIN on iteration")

Please, apply.
Thanks.
