net_sched: prio: fix a race in prio_tune()

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit d35acc1be3 ]

Gerrard Tai reported a race condition in PRIO, whenever SFQ perturb timer
fires at the wrong time.

The race is as follows:

CPU 0                                 CPU 1
[1]: lock root
[2]: qdisc_tree_flush_backlog()
[3]: unlock root
 |
 |                                    [5]: lock root
 |                                    [6]: rehash
 |                                    [7]: qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()
 |
[4]: qdisc_put()

This can be abused to underflow a parent's qlen.

Calling qdisc_purge_queue() instead of qdisc_tree_flush_backlog()
should fix the race, because all packets will be purged from the qdisc
before releasing the lock.

Fixes: 7b8e0b6e65 ("net: sched: prio: delay destroying child qdiscs on change")
