Gao Feng ad9852af97 netfilter: nf_ct_helper: Fix possible panic after nf_conntrack_helper_unregister
The helper module would be unloaded after nf_conntrack_helper_unregister,
so it may cause a possible panic caused by race.

nf_ct_iterate_destroy(unhelp, me) reset the helper of conntrack as NULL,
but maybe someone has gotten the helper pointer during this period. Then
it would panic, when it accesses the helper and the module was unloaded.

Take an example as following:
CPU0                                                   CPU1
ctnetlink_dump_helpinfo
helper = rcu_dereference(help->helper);
                                                       unhelp
                                                       set helper as NULL
                                                       unload helper module
helper->to_nlattr(skb, ct);

As above, the cpu0 tries to access the helper and its module is unloaded,
then the panic happens.
