Ah, no, I said something stupid. Non-offloaded child Qdisc should still
work with offloaded root (shaping done in software, scheduling in hardware).
I was thinking about the autonomous forwarding case in the back of my
mind, that's still problematic because the shaping wouldn't affect the
packets that Linux didn't originate.
