Okay... this bug was hard to find.

David, would you be OK if we send QFQ patch for 2.6.39 ?

I know its a bit late but its a new qdisc, very well tested now, just
tell us :)

Thanks

[PATCH] net_sched: fix THROTTLED/RUNNING race

commit fd245a4adb52 (net_sched: move TCQ_F_THROTTLED flag)
added a race.

qdisc_watchdog() is run from softirq, so special care should be taken or
we can lose one state transition (THROTTLED/RUNNING)

Prior to fd245a4adb52, we were manipulating q->flags (qdisc->flags &=
~TCQ_F_THROTTLED;) and this manipulation could only race with
qdisc_warn_nonwc().

Since we want to avoid atomic ops in qdisc fast path - it was the
meaning of commit 371121057607e (QDISC_STATE_RUNNING dont need atomic
bit ops) - fix is to move THROTTLE bit into 'state' field, this one
being manipulated with SMP and IRQ safe operations.
