    ms/netfilter: nft_compat: fix crash when related match/target module is removed
    
    We "cache" the loaded match/target modules and reuse them, but when the
    modules are removed, we still point to them. Then we may end up with
    invalid memory references when using iptables-compat to add rules later.
    
    Input the following commands will reproduce the kernel crash:
      # iptables-compat -A INPUT -j LOG
      # iptables-compat -D INPUT -j LOG
      # rmmod xt_LOG
      # iptables-compat -A INPUT -j LOG
      BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa05a9010

    So when nobody use the related match/target module, there's no need to
    "cache" it. And nft_[match|target]_release are useless anymore, remove
    them.
