Subject: [PATCH]: Fix queueing return values...


I'm trying to make some further progress on this because it
has been sitting for too long.

What I want to do at this point is fix the most obvious
problems in order to fix those crashes that were reported,
and do it in such a way that an easy 2.6.26-stable backport
is there too.

After a first pass, just trying to sort out the worst cases,
I came up with TBF and HTB that needed immediate fixes.

HTB's case has been discussed to death before, and my current
fix is greatly simplified from my original patch.  I misread
the logic and only that inner code block to the ->enqueue()
and ->requeue() calls need to ensure proper return value
propagation.  I moved all kinds of things around for no good
reason in my original patch.

TBF is just a case of an improperly open-coded implementation
of qdisc_reshape_fail() which corrupts the return value.

First the net-2.6 version then the version intended for
2.6.26-stable submission:

-------------------- net-2.6 --------------------
pkt_sched: Fix return value corruption in HTB and TBF.

Packet schedulers should only return NET_XMIT_DROP iff
the packet really was dropped.  If the packet does reach
the device after we return NET_XMIT_DROP then TCP can
crash because it depends upon the enqueue path return
values being accurate.
