Roman Mashak af5d01842f net sched actions: fix invalid pointer dereferencing if skbedit flags missing
When application fails to pass flags in netlink TLV for a new skbedit action,
the kernel results in the following oops:

The caller calls action's ->init() and passes pointer to "struct tc_action *a",
which later may be initialized to point at the existing action, otherwise
"struct tc_action *a" is still invalid, and therefore dereferencing it is an
error as happens in tcf_idr_release, where refcnt is decremented.

So in case of missing flags tcf_idr_release must be called only for
existing actions.

    - prepare patch for net tree

README

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.
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.
