I'll try to check this all more later, but this probably "ain't" good:
during deactivation a class can use a parent class, so there would be
a use after kfree if it's not "parents after children". IMHO, it's
better to do a separate version of htb_destroy_class() for
htb_destroy(), and skip there htb_deactivate(), tcf_destroy_chain()
and htb_safe_rb_erase() which are not needed at the moment.
