Subject: [PATCH] mnl: do not build nftnl_set element list

Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2047821
Upstream Status: nftables commit b4b234f5a29e8
Conflicts: Context change due to missing commit 66746e7dedeb0
	   ("src: support for nat with interval concatenation").

commit b4b234f5a29e819045679acd95820a7457d4d7de

    mnl: do not build nftnl_set element list

    Do not call alloc_setelem_cache() to build the set element list in
    nftnl_set. Instead, translate one single set element expression to
    nftnl_set_elem object at a time and use this object to build the netlink
    header.

    Using a huge test set containing 1.1 million element blocklist, this
    patch is reducing userspace memory consumption by 40%.
