    netfilter: nf_tables: fix underflow in object reference counter

    Since ("netfilter: nf_tables: drop map element references from
    preparation phase"), integration with commit protocol is better,
    therefore drop the workaround that b91d903 ("netfilter: nf_tables:
    fix leaking object reference count") provides.
