[PATCH net v2] net/sched: fix netdevice reference leaks in attach_default_qdiscs()

[PATCH net v2] net/sched: fix netdevice reference leaks in attach_default_qdiscs()

[Wang Hai]

In attach_default_qdiscs(), if a dev has multiple queues and queue 0 fails
to attach qdisc because there is no memory in attach_one_default_qdisc().
Then dev->qdisc will be noop_qdisc by default. But the other queues may be
able to successfully attach to default qdisc.

In this case, the fallback to noqueue process will be triggered. If the
original attached qdisc is not released and a new one is directly
attached, this will cause netdevice reference leaks.

The following is the bug log:

veth0: default qdisc (fq_codel) fail, fallback to noqueue
unregister_netdevice: waiting for veth0 to become free. Usage count = 32
leaked reference.

Fix this bug by clearing any non-noop qdiscs that may have been assigned
before trying to re-attach.
