Michal Hocko a148ce1537 netfilter: x_tables: do not fail xt_alloc_table_info too easilly
eacd86ca3b ("net/netfilter/x_tables.c: use kvmalloc()
in xt_alloc_table_info()") has unintentionally fortified
xt_alloc_table_info allocation when __GFP_RETRY has been dropped from
the vmalloc fallback. Later on there was a syzbot report that this
can lead to OOM killer invocations when tables are too large and
0537250fdc ("netfilter: x_tables: make allocation less aggressive")
has been merged to restore the original behavior. Georgi Nikolov however
noticed that he is not able to install his iptables anymore so this can
be seen as a regression.

The primary argument for 0537250fdc was that this allocation path
shouldn't really trigger the OOM killer and kill innocent tasks. On the
other hand the interface requires root and as such should allow what the
admin asks for. Root inside a namespaces makes this more complicated
because those might be not trusted in general. If they are not then such
namespaces should be restricted anyway. Therefore drop the __GFP_NORETRY
and replace it by __GFP_ACCOUNT to enfore memcg constrains on it.

Fixes: 0537250fdc ("netfilter: x_tables: make allocation less aggressive")
