Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 020/139] net: sched: consistently use rcu_replace_pointer() in taprio_change()

From: Dmitry Antipov <dmantipov@...dex.ru>

[ Upstream commit d5c4546062fd6f5dbce575c7ea52ad66d1968678 ]

According to Vinicius (and carefully looking through the whole
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=b65e0af58423fc8a73aa
once again), txtime branch of 'taprio_change()' is not going to
race against 'advance_sched()'. But using 'rcu_replace_pointer()'
in the former may be a good idea as well.
