    net/sched: cls_u32: Fix reference counter leak leading to overflow
    
    [ Upstream commit 04c55383fa5689357bcdd2c8036725a55ed632bc ]
    
    In the event of a failure in tcf_change_indev(), u32_set_parms() will
    immediately return without decrementing the recently incremented
    reference counter.  If this happens enough times, the counter will
    rollover and the reference freed, leading to a double free which can be
    used to do 'bad things'.
    
    In order to prevent this, move the point of possible failure above the
    point where the reference counter is incremented.  Also save any
    meaningful return values to be applied to the return data at the
    appropriate point in time.
    
    This issue was caught with KASAN.
