Subject: [PATCH net] taprio: fix panic while hw offload sched list swap

Don't swap oper and admin schedules too early, it's not correct and
causes crash.

Steps to reproduce:

1)
tc qdisc replace dev eth0 parent root handle 100 taprio \
    num_tc 3 \
    map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
    queues 1@0 1@1 1@2 \
    base-time $SOME_BASE_TIME \
    sched-entry S 01 80000 \
    sched-entry S 02 15000 \
    sched-entry S 04 40000 \
    flags 2

2)
tc qdisc replace dev eth0 parent root handle 100 taprio \
    base-time $SOME_BASE_TIME \
    sched-entry S 01 90000 \
    sched-entry S 02 20000 \
    sched-entry S 04 40000 \
    flags 2

3)
tc qdisc replace dev eth0 parent root handle 100 taprio \
    base-time $SOME_BASE_TIME \
    sched-entry S 01 150000 \
    sched-entry S 02 200000 \
    sched-entry S 04 40000 \
    flags 2

Do 2 3 2 .. steps  more times if not happens and observe:

Try to explain one of the possible crash cases:

The "real" admin list is assigned when admin_sched is set to
new_admin, it happens after "swap", that assigns to oper_sched NULL.
Thus if call qdisc show it can crash.

Farther, next second time, when sched list is updated, the admin_sched
is not NULL and becomes the oper_sched, previous oper_sched was NULL so
just skipped. But then admin_sched is assigned new_admin, but schedules
to free previous assigned admin_sched (that already became oper_sched).

Farther, next third time, when sched list is updated,
while one more swap, oper_sched is not null, but it was happy to be
freed already (while prev. admin update), so while try to free
oper_sched the kernel panic happens at taprio_free_sched_cb().

So, move the "swap emulation" where it should be according to function
comment from code.
