You would break OpenWRT package "qos-scripts", specifically:
 https://github.com/openwrt-mirror/openwrt/blob/master/package/network/config/qos-scripts/files/usr/bin/qos-stop

Which cleans-up/clear the qdisc setup by removing the root qdisc,
assuming and depending on the default qdisc is re-assigned.
