Oz Shlomo c80b5da860 net/mlx5e: CT: manage the lifetime of the ct entry object
[ Upstream commit a2173131526dc845eb1968a15bc192b3fc2ff000 ]

The ct entry object is accessed by the ct add, del, stats and restore
methods. In addition, it is referenced from several hash tables.

The lifetime of the ct entry object was not managed which triggered race
conditions as in the following kasan dump:

Manage the lifetime of the ct entry object by using synchornization
mechanisms for concurrent access.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
