netfilter: unlock xt_table earlier in __do_replace
Now it's doing cleanup_entry for oldinfo under the xt_table lock,
but it's not really necessary. After the replacement job is done
in xt_replace_table, oldinfo is not used elsewhere any more, and
it can be freed without xt_table lock safely.
The important thing is that rtnl_lock is called in some xt_target
destroy, which means rtnl_lock, a big lock is used in xt_table
lock, a smaller one. It usually could be the reason why a dead
lock may happen.
Besides, all xt_target/match checkentry is called out of xt_table
lock. It's better also to move all cleanup_entry calling out of
xt_table lock, just as do_replace_finish does for ebtables.
