netfilter: nf_nat: Fix possible memory leak in nf_nat_init() 

In nf_nat_init(), register_nf_nat_bpf() can fail and return directly
without any error handling.
Then nf_nat_bysource will leak and registering of &nat_net_ops,
&follow_master_nat and nf_nat_hook won't be reverted.

This leaves wild ops in linkedlists and when another module tries to
call register_pernet_operations() or nf_ct_helper_expectfn_register()
it triggers page fault:

 BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff81b964c
 RIP: 0010:register_pernet_operations+0x1b9/0x5f0
 Call Trace:
 <TASK>
  register_pernet_subsys+0x29/0x40
  ebtables_init+0x58/0x1000 [ebtables]
  ...
