Davide Caratti a01c245438 net/sched: fix a couple of splats in the error path of tfc_gate_init()
trying to configure TC 'act_gate' rules with invalid control actions, the
following splat can be observed:

 general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000002: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI

this is caused by hrtimer_cancel(), running before hrtimer_init(). Fix it
ensuring to call hrtimer_cancel() only if clockid is valid, and the timer
has been initialized. After fixing this splat, the same error path causes
another problem:

 general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000000: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI

the problem is similar: tcf_action_cleanup() was trying to release a list
without initializing it first. Ensure that INIT_LIST_HEAD() is called for
every newly created 'act_gate' action, same as what was done to 'act_ife'
with commit 44c23d7159 ("net/sched: act_ife: initalize ife->metalist
earlier").

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.
