[PATCH v6 net 4/4] net/sched: Prohibit regrafting ingress or clsact Qdiscs

[Peilin Ye]

From: Peilin Ye <peilin.ye@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, after creating an ingress (or clsact) Qdisc and grafting it
under TC_H_INGRESS (TC_H_CLSACT), it is possible to graft it again under
e.g. a TBF Qdisc:

  $ ip link add ifb0 type ifb
  $ tc qdisc add dev ifb0 handle 1: root tbf rate 20kbit buffer 1600 limit 3000
  $ tc qdisc add dev ifb0 clsact
  $ tc qdisc link dev ifb0 handle ffff: parent 1:1
  $ tc qdisc show dev ifb0
  qdisc tbf 1: root refcnt 2 rate 20Kbit burst 1600b lat 560.0ms
  qdisc clsact ffff: parent ffff:fff1 refcnt 2
                                      ^^^^^^^^

clsact's refcount has increased: it is now grafted under both
TC_H_CLSACT and 1:1.

ingress and clsact Qdiscs should only be used under TC_H_INGRESS
(TC_H_CLSACT).  Prohibit regrafting them.
