stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.137 commit 80977126bc20309f7f7bae6d8621356b393e8b41 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I60PLB

--------------------------------
commit 580077855a40741cf511766129702d97ff02f4d9 upstream.
In nf_tables_updtable, if nf_tables_table_enable returns an error, nft_trans_destroy is called to free the transaction object.
nft_trans_destroy() calls list_del(), but the transaction was never placed on a list -- the list head is all zeroes, this results in a null dereference:
BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in nft_trans_destroy+0x26/0x59 Call Trace: nft_trans_destroy+0x26/0x59 nf_tables_newtable+0x4bc/0x9bc [..]
Its sane to assume that nft_trans_destroy() can be called on the transaction object returned by nft_trans_alloc(), so make sure the list head is initialised.
