Maybe just an unconditionall call to nf_tables_module_autoload_cleanup().
Or, alternatively, unconditionally call __nf_tables_abort().
The downside is that we will need to change __nf_tables_abort to elide
synchronize_rcu() unless needed -- else netns dismantling might become
too expensive.
OTOH, module_list should always be empty here, so this is ok.
