net/sched: act_api: fix possible infinite loop in tcf_idr_check_alloc()
[ Upstream commit d864319871b05fadd153e0aede4811ca7008f5d6 ]
syzbot found hanging tasks waiting on rtnl_lock [1]
A reproducer is available in the syzbot bug.
When a request to add multiple actions with the same index is sent, the
second request will block forever on the first request. This holds
rtnl_lock, and causes tasks to hang.
Return -EAGAIN to prevent infinite looping, while keeping documented
behavior.
