net/sched: act_skbedit: fix refcount leak when replace fails
when act_skbedit was converted to use RCU in the data plane, we added an error path, but we forgot to drop the action refcount in case of failure during a 'replace' operation: # tc actions add action skbedit ptype otherhost pass index 100 # tc action show action skbedit total acts 1 action order 0: skbedit ptype otherhost pass index 100 ref 1 bind 0 # tc actions replace action skbedit ptype otherhost drop index 100 RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory We have an error talking to the kernel # tc action show action skbedit total acts 1 action order 0: skbedit ptype otherhost pass index 100 ref 2 bind 0 Ensure we call tcf_idr_release(), in case 'params_new' allocation failed, also when the action is being replaced.
