In fl_change(), when adding a new rule (i.e. fold == NULL), a driver may
reject the new rule, for example due to resource exhaustion. By that
point, the new rule was already assigned a mask, and it was added to
that mask's hash table. The clean-up path that's invoked as a result of
the rejection however neglects to undo the hash table addition, and
proceeds to free the new rule, thus leaving a dangling pointer in the
hash table.
Fix by removing fnew from the mask's hash table before it is freed.

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.
