Action init code increments reference counter when it changes an action.
This is the desired behavior for cls API which needs to obtain action
reference for every classifier that points to action. However, act API just
needs to change the action and releases the reference before returning.
This sequence breaks when the requested action doesn't exist, which causes
act API init code to create new action with specified index, but action is
still released before returning and is deleted (unless it was referenced
concurrently by cls API).
Reproduction:
$ sudo tc actions ls action gact
$ sudo tc actions change action gact drop index 1
$ sudo tc actions ls action gact
Extend tcf_action_init() to accept 'init_res' array and initialize it with
action->ops->init() result. In tcf_action_add() remove pointers to created
actions from actions array before passing it to tcf_action_put_many().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
