WANG Cong 763dbf6328 net_sched: move the empty tp check from ->destroy() to ->delete()
We could have a race condition where in ->classify() path we
dereference tp->root and meanwhile a parallel ->destroy() makes it
a NULL. Daniel cured this bug in commit d936377414
("net, sched: respect rcu grace period on cls destruction").

This happens when ->destroy() is called for deleting a filter to
check if we are the last one in tp, this tp is still linked and
visible at that time. The root cause of this problem is the semantic
of ->destroy(), it does two things (for non-force case):

1) check if tp is empty
2) if tp is empty we could really destroy it

and its caller, if cares, needs to check its return value to see if it
is really destroyed. Therefore we can't unlink tp unless we know it is
empty.

As suggested by Daniel, we could actually move the test logic to ->delete()
so that we can safely unlink tp after ->delete() tells us the last one is
just deleted and before ->destroy().

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.
