Subject: [PATCH] netlink: Catch unknown types when deserializing objects
JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-190549
Upstream Status: nftables commit 690f19eadde5cb607ec3d8d471c86d558c7229bd
commit 690f19eadde5cb607ec3d8d471c86d558c7229bd

netlink: Catch unknown types when deserializing objects
Print an error message and discard the object instead of returning it to
the caller. At least when trying to print it, we would hit an assert()
in obj_type_name() anyway.
Fixes: 4756d92e517ae ("src: listing of stateful objects")
