Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] sfq: fix sfq stats handling

David, since this one fixes a bug, could you apply it before the pending
SFQ patch (sch_sfq: allow big packets and be fair), I'll respin this one
if necessary.

Thanks

[PATCH net-next-2.6] sfq: fix sfq class stats handling

sfq_walk() runs without qdisc lock. By the time it selects a non empty
hash slot and sfq_dump_class_stats() is run (with lock held), slot might
have been freed : We then access q->slots[SFQ_EMPTY_SLOT], out of
bounds, and crash in slot_queue_walk()

On previous kernels, bug is here but out of bounds qs[SFQ_DEPTH] and
allot[SFQ_DEPTH] are located in struct sfq_sched_data, so no illegal
memory access happens, only possibly wrong data reported to user.

Also, slot_dequeue_tail() should make sure slot skb chain is correctly
terminated, or sfq_dump_class_stats() can access freed skbs.
