Subject: [PATCH] nft: cache: Make nft_rebuild_cache() respect fake cache

If transaction needed a refresh in nft_action(), restore with flush
would fetch a full cache instead of merely refreshing table list
contained in "fake" cache.

To fix this, nft_rebuild_cache() must distinguish between fake cache and
full rule cache. Therefore introduce NFT_CL_FAKE to be distinguished
from NFT_CL_RULES.

(cherry picked from commit 40ad7793d1884f28767cf58c96e9d76ae0a18db1)

RHEL-only fix: Make nft_rebuild_cache() check 'level' instead of
'h->cache_level' as the latter may be reset by __nft_flush_cache().
