__tcf_ipt_init() can fail after the idr has been successfully reserved.
When this happens, subsequent attempts to configure xt/ipt rules using
the same idr value systematically fail with -ENOSPC:

 ...

Fix this in the error path of __tcf_ipt_init(), calling tcf_idr_release()
in place of tcf_idr_cleanup(). Since tcf_ipt_release() can now be called
when tcfi_t is NULL, we also need to protect calls to ipt_destroy_target()
to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
