Hello!

This is an experimental semi-automated report about issues detected by
Coverity from a scan of next-20210331 as part of the linux-next scan project:
https://scan.coverity.com/projects/linux-next-weekly-scan

You're getting this email because you were associated with the identified
lines of code (noted below) that were touched by commits:

  None
    bb4052e57b5b ("audit: log nftables configuration change events once per table")

Coverity reported the following:

*** CID 1503581:    (USE_AFTER_FREE)

Notes from a human:

This appears to be callable after potential calls to "nft_trans_destroy(trans);"

If this is a false positive, please let us know so we can mark it as
such, or teach the Coverity rules to be smarter. If not, please make
sure fixes get into linux-next. :) For patches fixing this, please
include these lines (but double-check the "Fixes" first):
