Davide Caratti d7f2001573 net/sched: fix idr leak in the error path of tcf_vlan_init()
tcf_vlan_init() can fail after the idr has been successfully reserved.
When this happens, every subsequent attempt to configure vlan 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 vlan pop index 100
 RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory
 We have an error talking to the kernel
 # tc action add action vlan pop index 100
 RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device

 # tc action add action vlan pop index 100
 RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device

 ...

Fix this in tcf_vlan_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_vlan module:

 # rmmod act_vlan; modprobe act_vlan
 # tc action add action vlan push id 5 index 100
 # tc action replace action vlan push id 7 index 100
 RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory
 We have an error talking to the kernel
 # tc action list action vlan
 #
 # rmmod act_vlan
 rmmod: ERROR: Module act_vlan is in use

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
