The nft_set_gc_batch_check() checks whether gc buffer is full.
If gc buffer is full, gc buffer is released by
the nft_set_gc_batch_complete() internally.
In case of rbtree, the rb_erase() should be called before calling the
nft_set_gc_batch_complete(). therefore the rb_erase() should
be called before calling the nft_set_gc_batch_check() too.

test commands:
   table ip filter {
	   set set1 {
		   type ipv4_addr; flags interval, timeout;
		   gc-interval 10s;
		   timeout 1s;
		   elements = {
			   1-2,
			   3-4,
			   5-6,
			   ...
			   10000-10001,
		   }
	   }
   }
   %nft -f test.nft

sizeof(sizeof()) is quite strange and does not seem to be what

The issue is detected with the help of Coccinelle.

====================
Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for you net tree:

1) Remove duplicated include at the end of UDP conntrack, from Yue Haibing.

2) Restore conntrack dependency on xt_cluster, from Martin Willi.

3) Fix splat with GSO skbs from the checksum target, from Florian Westphal.

4) Rework ct timeout support, the template strategy to attach custom timeouts
   is not correct since it will not work in conjunction with conntrack zones
   and we have a possible free after use when removing the rule due to missing
   refcounting. To fix these problems, do not use conntrack template at all
   and set custom timeout on the already valid conntrack object. This
   fix comes with a preparation patch to simplify timeout adjustment by
   initializating the first position of the timeout array for all of the
   existing trackers. Patchset from Florian Westphal.

5) Fix missing dependency on from IPv4 chain NAT type, from Florian.

6) Release chain reference counter from the flush path, from Taehee Yoo.

7) After flushing an iptables ruleset, conntrack hooks are unregistered
   and entries are left stale to be cleaned up by the timeout garbage
   collector. No TCP tracking is done on established flows by this time.
   If ruleset is reloaded, then hooks are registered again and TCP
   tracking is restored, which considers packets to be invalid. Clear
   window tracking to exercise TCP flow pickup from the middle given that
   history is lost for us. Again from Florian.

8) Fix crash from netlink interface with CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_TIMEOUT=y
   and CONFIG_NF_CT_NETLINK_TIMEOUT=n.

9) Broken CT target due to returning incorrect type from
   ctnl_timeout_find_get().

10) Solve conntrack clash on NF_REPEAT verdicts too, from Michal Vaner.

11) Missing conversion of hashlimit sysctl interface to new API, from
    Cong Wang.

====================
Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for you net tree:

1) Remove duplicated include at the end of UDP conntrack, from Yue Haibing.

2) Restore conntrack dependency on xt_cluster, from Martin Willi.

3) Fix splat with GSO skbs from the checksum target, from Florian Westphal.

4) Rework ct timeout support, the template strategy to attach custom timeouts
   is not correct since it will not work in conjunction with conntrack zones
   and we have a possible free after use when removing the rule due to missing
   refcounting. To fix these problems, do not use conntrack template at all
   and set custom timeout on the already valid conntrack object. This
   fix comes with a preparation patch to simplify timeout adjustment by
   initializating the first position of the timeout array for all of the
   existing trackers. Patchset from Florian Westphal.

5) Fix missing dependency on from IPv4 chain NAT type, from Florian.

6) Release chain reference counter from the flush path, from Taehee Yoo.

7) After flushing an iptables ruleset, conntrack hooks are unregistered
   and entries are left stale to be cleaned up by the timeout garbage
   collector. No TCP tracking is done on established flows by this time.
   If ruleset is reloaded, then hooks are registered again and TCP
   tracking is restored, which considers packets to be invalid. Clear
   window tracking to exercise TCP flow pickup from the middle given that
   history is lost for us. Again from Florian.

8) Fix crash from netlink interface with CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_TIMEOUT=y
   and CONFIG_NF_CT_NETLINK_TIMEOUT=n.

9) Broken CT target due to returning incorrect type from
   ctnl_timeout_find_get().

10) Solve conntrack clash on NF_REPEAT verdicts too, from Michal Vaner.

11) Missing conversion of hashlimit sysctl interface to new API, from
    Cong Wang.

After switching to the new procfs API, it is supposed to
retrieve the private pointer from PDE_DATA(file_inode(s-&gt;file)),
s-&gt;private is no longer referred.

NF_REPEAT places the packet at the beginning of the iptables chain
instead of accepting or rejecting it right away. The packet however will
reach the end of the chain and continue to the end of iptables
eventually, so it needs the same handling as NF_ACCEPT and NF_DROP.

Now that cttimeout support for nft_ct is in place, these should depend
on CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_TIMEOUT otherwise we can crash when dumping the
policy if this option is not enabled.

Doug Smythies says:
  Sometimes it is desirable to temporarily disable, or clear,
  the iptables rule set on a computer being controlled via a
  secure shell session (SSH). While unwise on an internet facing
  computer, I also do it often on non-internet accessible computers
  while testing. Recently, this has become problematic, with the
  SSH session being dropped upon re-load of the rule set.

The problem is that when all rules are deleted, conntrack hooks get
unregistered.

In case the rules are re-added later, its possible that tcp window
has moved far enough so that all packets are considered invalid (out of
window) until entry expires (which can take forever, default
established timeout is 5 days).

Fix this by clearing maxwin of existing tcp connections on register.

v2: don't touch entries on hook removal.
v3: remove obsolete expiry check.
