Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
sch_hfsc: make hfsc_qlen_notify() idempotent<br />
<br />
hfsc_qlen_notify() is not idempotent either and not friendly<br />
to its callers, like fq_codel_dequeue(). Let&#39;s make it idempotent<br />
to ease qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() callers&#39; life:<br />
<br />
1. update_vf() decreases cl->cl_nactive, so we can check whether it is<br />
non-zero before calling it.<br />
<br />
2. eltree_remove() always removes RB node cl->el_node, but we can use<br />
RB_EMPTY_NODE() + RB_CLEAR_NODE() to make it safe.
