kworker/u4:2/25 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&table[i].mutex){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff852acfad>] nf_tables_netdev_event+0x10d/0x4d0 net/netfilter/nf_tables_netdev.c:122

but task is already holding lock:
 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff85861080>] ip6gre_exit_net+0x70/0x580 net/ipv6/ip6_gre.c:1206

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &table[i].mutex --> &xt[i].mutex --> rtnl_mutex

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(rtnl_mutex);
                               lock(&xt[i].mutex);
                               lock(rtnl_mutex);
  lock(&table[i].mutex);
