netfilter: ebtables: fix table blob use-after-free


We are not allowed to return an error at this point.
Looking at the code it looks like ret is always 0 at this
point, but its not.

t = find_table_lock(net, repl->name, &ret, &ebt_mutex);

... this can return a valid table, with ret != 0.

This bug causes update of table->private with the new
blob, but then frees the blob right away in the caller.

Syzbot report:

BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in __ebt_unregister_table+0xc00/0xcd0 net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c:1168
Read of size 4 at addr ffffc90005425000 by task kworker/u4:4/74
Workqueue: netns cleanup_net
Call Trace:

ip(6)tables appears to be ok (ret should be 0 at this point) but make
this more obvious.
