net/sched: fix false lockdep warning on qdisc root lock
[ Upstream commit af0cb3fa3f9ed258d14abab0152e28a0f9593084 ]
Xiumei and Christoph reported the following lockdep splat, complaining of
the qdisc root lock being taken twice:
============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.7.0-rc3+ #598 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
swapper/2/0 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff888177190110 (&sch->q.lock){+.-.}-{2:2}, at: __dev_queue_xmit+0x1560/0x2e70
but task is already holding lock:
ffff88811995a110 (&sch->q.lock){+.-.}-{2:2}, at: __dev_queue_xmit+0x1560/0x2e70
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

This happens when TC does a mirred egress redirect from the root qdisc of
device A to the root qdisc of device B. As long as these two locks aren't
protecting the same qdisc, they can be acquired in chain: add a per-qdisc
lockdep key to silence false warnings.
This dynamic key should safely replace the static key we have in sch_htb:
it was added to allow enqueueing to the device "direct qdisc" while still
holding the qdisc root lock.
v2: don't use static keys anymore in HTB direct qdiscs (thanks Eric Dumazet)
