[PATCH 4.14 284/496] net/sched: fix idr leak in the error path of tcf_skbmod_init()

4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f29cdfbe33d6915ba8056179b0041279a67e3647 ]

tcf_skbmod_init() can fail after the idr has been successfully reserved.
When this happens, every subsequent attempt to configure skbmod rules
using the same idr value will systematically fail with -ENOSPC, unless
the first attempt was done using the 'replace' keyword:

# tc action add action skbmod swap mac index 100
RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory
We have an error talking to the kernel
# tc action add action skbmod swap mac index 100
RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device
We have an error talking to the kernel
# tc action add action skbmod swap mac index 100
RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device
We have an error talking to the kernel
...

Fix this in tcf_skbmod_init(), ensuring that tcf_idr_release() is called
on the error path when the idr has been reserved, but not yet inserted.
Also, don't test 'ovr' in the error path, to avoid a 'replace' failure
implicitly become a 'delete' that leaks refcount in act_skbmod module:

# rmmod act_skbmod; modprobe act_skbmod
# tc action add action skbmod swap mac index 100
# tc action add action skbmod swap mac continue index 100
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
We have an error talking to the kernel
# tc action replace action skbmod swap mac continue index 100
RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory
We have an error talking to the kernel
# tc action list action skbmod
#
# rmmod act_skbmod
rmmod: ERROR: Module act_skbmod is in use
