Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 10/15] net/sched: make stab available before ops->init() call

Some qdiscs like taprio turn out to be actually pretty reliant on a well
configured stab, to not underestimate the skb transmission time (by
properly accounting for L1 overhead).

In a future change, taprio will need the stab, if configured by the
user, to be available at ops->init() time. It will become even more
important in upcoming work, when the overhead will be used for the
queueMaxSDU calculation that is passed to an offloading driver.

However, rcu_assign_pointer(sch->stab, stab) is called right after
ops->init(), making it unavailable, and I don't really see a good reason
for that.

Move it earlier, which nicely seems to simplify the error handling path
as well.
