CVE-2024-54683

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: IDLETIMER: Fix for possible ABBA deadlock

Deletion of the last rule referencing a given idletimer may happen at
the same time as a read of its file in sysfs:

| ======================================================
| WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
| 6.12.0-rc7-01692-g5e9a28f41134-dirty #594 Not tainted
| ------------------------------------------------------
| iptables/33 03 is trying to acquire lock:
| ffff8881057e04b8 (kn->active#48){++++}-{0:0}, at: __kernfs_remove+0x20
|
| but task is already holding lock:
| ffffffffa0249068 (list_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: idletimer_tg_destroy_v]
|
| which lock already depends on the new lock. A simple reproducer is:

| #!/bin/bash
|
| while true; do
| iptables -A INPUT -i foo -j IDLETIMER --timeout 10 --label "testme"
| iptables -D INPUT -i foo -j IDLETIMER --timeout 10 --label "testme"
| done &
| while true; do
| cat /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/testme >/dev/null
| done

Avoid this by freeing list_mutex right after deleting the element from
the list, then continuing with the teardown.
