net_sched: add a temporary refcnt for struct tcindex_data
Although we intentionally use an ordered workqueue for all tc filter works, the ordering is not guaranteed by RCU work, given that tcf_queue_work() is esstenially a call_rcu(). This problem is demostrated by Thomas: CPU 0: tcf_queue_work() tcf_queue_work(&r->rwork, tcindex_destroy_rexts_work); -> Migration to CPU 1 CPU 1: tcf_queue_work(&p->rwork, tcindex_destroy_work); so the 2nd work could be queued before the 1st one, which leads to a free-after-free. Enforcing this order in RCU work is hard as it requires to change RCU code too. Fortunately we can workaround this problem in tcindex filter by taking a temporary refcnt, we only refcnt it right before we begin to destroy it. This simplifies the code a lot as a full refcnt requires much more changes in tcindex_set_parms().
