netfilter: nf_tables: store transaction list locally while requesting module

Browse source 
This patch fixes a WARN_ON in nft_set_destroy() due to missing
set reference count drop from the preparation phase. This is triggered
by the module autoload path. Do not exercise the abort path from
nft_request_module() while preparation phase cleaning up is still
pending.
