Jérémy Jean 2014ac62df netfilter: flowtable: publish GC-visible tuple last
nf_flow_table_iterate() only treats original-direction tuple nodes as
owning entries. Publishing the original node first lets GC observe and
free a flow while flow_offload_add() is still inserting the reply node.
Publish the reply node first and the original node last so GC never
sees a partially installed flow.

KASAN can trigger slab-use-after-free read and write reports in the
flowtable/rhashtable path (rht_deferred_worker, jhash, flow_offload_del,
flow_offload_lookup, etc.).
