[PATCH linux-5.9 1/1] net: netfilter: fix KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds Read in nft_flow_rule_create

From: Saeed Mirzamohammadi <saeed.mirzamohammadi@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch fixes the issue due to:

BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in nft_flow_rule_create+0x622/0x6a2
net/netfilter/nf_tables_offload.c:40
Read of size 8 at addr ffff888103910b58 by task syz-executor227/16244

The error happens when expr->ops is accessed early on before performing the boundary check and after nft_expr_next() moves the expr to go out-of-bounds.

This patch checks the boundary condition before expr->ops that fixes the slab-out-of-bounds Read issue.
