====================
net/sched: improve class lifetime handling
Valis says[0]:
============
Three classifiers (cls_fw, cls_u32 and cls_route) always copy
tcf_result struct into the new instance of the filter on update.
This causes a problem when updating a filter bound to a class,
as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the
success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class
and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-free.
============
Turns out these could have been spotted easily with proper warnings.
Improve the current class lifetime with wrappers that check for
overflow/underflow.
While at it add an extack for when a class in use is deleted.
