net/sched: act_ipt: fix refcount leak when replace fails
After commit 4e8ddd7f1758 ("net: sched: don't release reference on action
overwrite"), the error path of all actions was converted to drop refcount
also when the action was being overwritten. But we forgot act_ipt_init(),
in case allocation of 'tname' was not successful:
# tc action add action xt -j LOG --log-prefix hello index 100
tablename: mangle hook: NF_IP_POST_ROUTING
target: LOG level warning prefix "hello" index 100
# tc action show action xt
total acts 1
action order 0: tablename: mangle hook: NF_IP_POST_ROUTING
target LOG level warning prefix "hello"
index 100 ref 1 bind 0
# tc action replace action xt -j LOG --log-prefix world index 100
tablename: mangle hook: NF_IP_POST_ROUTING
target: LOG level warning prefix "world" index 100
RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory
We have an error talking to the kernel
# tc action show action xt
total acts 1
action order 0: tablename: mangle hook: NF_IP_POST_ROUTING
target LOG level warning prefix "hello"
index 100 ref 2 bind 0
Ensure we call tcf_idr_release(), in case 'tname' allocation failed, also
when the action is being replaced.
Fixes: 4e8ddd7f1758 ("net: sched: don't release reference on action overwrite")
