    net/sched: cls_u32: No longer copy tcf_result on update to avoid use-after-free
    
    [ Upstream commit 3044b16e7c6fe5d24b1cdbcf1bd0a9d92d1ebd81 ]
    
    When u32_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole
    tcf_result struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter.
    
    This causes a problem when updating a filter bound to a class,
    as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the
    success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class
    and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-free.
    
    Fix this by no longer copying the tcf_result struct from the old filter.
    
    Fixes: de5df63228fc ("net: sched: cls_u32 changes to knode must appear atomic to readers")
