unshare -n bash -c 'ip link add br0 type bridge; nft add table netdev t ; \

Problem is that when netns device exit hooks create the UNREGISTER
event, the .pre_exit hook for nf_tables core has already removed the
base hook. Notifier attempts to do this again.
The need to do base hook unregister unconditionally was needed in the past,
because notifier was last stage where reg->dev dereference was safe.
Now that nf_tables does the hook removal in .pre_exit, this isn't
needed anymore.

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.
