nft_set_lookup_byid() is very slow when transaction becomes large, due to
walk of the transaction list.
Add a dedicated list that contains only the new sets.
Before: nft -f ruleset 0.07s user 0.00s system 0% cpu 1:04.84 total
After: nft -f ruleset 0.07s user 0.00s system 0% cpu 30.115 total
.. where ruleset contains ~10 sets with ~100k elements.
The above number is for a combined flush+reload of the ruleset.
With previous flush, even the first NEWELEM has to walk through a few
hundred thousands of DELSET(ELEM) transactions before the first NEWSET
object. To cope with random-order-newset-newsetelem we'd need to replace
commit_set_list with a hashtable.
Expectation is that a NEWELEM operation refers to the most recently added
set, so last entry of the dedicated list should be the set we want.
NB: This is not a bug fix per se (functionality is fine), but with
larger transaction batches list search takes forever, so it would be
nice to speed this up for -stable too, hence adding a "fixes" tag.

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 reStructuredText 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.
