Pablo Neira Ayuso 4bedf9eee0 netfilter: nf_tables: fix chain binding transaction logic
Add bound flag to rule and chain transactions as in 6a0a8d10a3
("netfilter: nf_tables: use-after-free in failing rule with bound set")
to skip them in case that the chain is already bound from the abort
path.

This patch fixes an imbalance in the chain use refcnt that triggers a
WARN_ON on the table and chain destroy path.

This patch also disallows nested chain bindings, which is not
supported from userspace.

The logic to deal with chain binding in nft_data_hold() and
nft_data_release() is not correct. The NFT_TRANS_PREPARE state needs a
special handling in case a chain is bound but next expressions in the
same rule fail to initialize as described by 1240eb93f0 ("netfilter:
nf_tables: incorrect error path handling with NFT_MSG_NEWRULE").

The chain is left bound if rule construction fails, so the objects
stored in this chain (and the chain itself) are released by the
transaction records from the abort path, follow up patch ("netfilter:
nf_tables: add NFT_TRANS_PREPARE_ERROR to deal with bound set/chain")
completes this error handling.

When deleting an existing rule, chain bound flag is set off so the
rule expression .destroy path releases the objects.

Fixes: d0e2c7de92 ("netfilter: nf_tables: add NFT_CHAIN_BINDING")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
