netfilter: nfnetlink: allow commit to fail
->commit() cannot fail at the moment. Followup-patch adds kmalloc calls in the commit phase, so we'll need to be able to handle errors. Make it so that -EGAIN causes a full replay, and make other errors cause the transaction to fail. Failing is ok from a consistency point of view as long as we perform all actions that could return an error before we increment the generation counter and the base seq.
