Subject: [patch net-next 2/2] net/sched: fix filter flushing

From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@...lanox.com>

When user instructs to remove all filters from chain, we cannot destroy
the chain as other actions may hold a reference. Also the put in errout
would try to destroy it again. So instead, just walk the chain and remove
all existing filters.

Fixes: 5bc1701881e3 ("net: sched: introduce multichain support for filters")
