basechain->stats is rcu protected data which is updated from
nft_chain_stats_replace(). This function is executed from the commit
phase which holds the pernet nf_tables commit mutex - not the global
nfnetlink subsystem mutex.
Test commands to reproduce the problem are:
%iptables-nft -I INPUT
%iptables-nft -Z
%iptables-nft -Z
This patch uses RCU calls to handle basechain->stats updates to fix a
splat that looks like:

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.
