[ Upstream commit b25a31bf0ca091aa8bdb9ab329b0226257568bbe ]
->release_ops() callback releases resources and this is used in error path. If nf_tables_newrule() fails after ->select_ops(), it should release resources. but it can not call ->destroy() because that should be called after ->init(). At this point, ->release_ops() should be used for releasing resources.
Test commands: modprobe -rv xt_tcpudp iptables-nft -I INPUT -m tcp <-- error command lsmod
Result: Module Size Used by xt_tcpudp 20480 2 <-- it should be 0
