Subject: [RFC net] Fixes: b63c5478e9cb ("ipv6: ioam: Support for Queue depth data field")

This patch fixes a NULL qdisc pointer when retrieving the TX queue depth
for IOAM.

IMPORTANT: I suspect this fix is local only and the bug goes deeper (see
reasoning below).

Kernel panic:
[...]
RIP: 0010:ioam6_fill_trace_data+0x54f/0x5b0
[...]

...which basically points to the call to qdisc_qstats_qlen_backlog
inside net/ipv6/ioam6.c.

>From there, I directly thought of a NULL pointer (queue->qdisc). To make
sure, I added some printk's to know exactly *why* and *when* it happens.
Here is the (summarized by queue) output:

skb for TX queue 1, qdisc is ffff8b375eee9800, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eee9800
skb for TX queue 2, qdisc is ffff8b375eeefc00, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeefc00
skb for TX queue 3, qdisc is ffff8b375eeef800, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeef800
skb for TX queue 4, qdisc is ffff8b375eeec800, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeec800
skb for TX queue 5, qdisc is ffff8b375eeea400, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeea400
skb for TX queue 6, qdisc is ffff8b375eeee000, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeee000
skb for TX queue 7, qdisc is ffff8b375eee8800, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eee8800
skb for TX queue 8, qdisc is ffff8b375eeedc00, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeedc00
skb for TX queue 9, qdisc is ffff8b375eee9400, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eee9400
skb for TX queue 10, qdisc is ffff8b375eee8000, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eee8000
skb for TX queue 11, qdisc is ffff8b375eeed400, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeed400
skb for TX queue 12, qdisc is ffff8b375eeea800, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeea800
skb for TX queue 13, qdisc is ffff8b375eee8c00, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eee8c00
skb for TX queue 14, qdisc is ffff8b375eeea000, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeea000
skb for TX queue 15, qdisc is ffff8b375eeeb800, qdisc_sleeping is ffff8b375eeeb800
skb for TX queue 16, qdisc is NULL, qdisc_sleeping is NULL

What the hell? So, not sure why queue #16 would *never* have a qdisc
attached. Is it something expected I'm not aware of? As an FYI, here is
the output of "tc qdisc list dev xxx":

By the way, the NIC is an Intel XL710 40GbE QSFP+ (i40e driver, firmware
version 8.50 0x8000b6c7 1.3082.0) and it was tested on latest "net"
version (6.1.0-rc7+). Is this a bug in the i40e driver?
