Subject: [PATCH net-next 05/14] netfilter: nf_tables: Use stored ifname in netdev hook dumps

From: Phil Sutter <phil@....cc>

The stored ifname and ops.dev->name may deviate after creation due to
interface name changes. Prefer the more deterministic stored name in
dumps which also helps avoiding inadvertent changes to stored ruleset
dumps.
