6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Cong Wang <cong.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 638ba5089324796c2ee49af10427459c2de35f71 ] qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() notifies parent qdisc only if child qdisc becomes empty, therefore we need to reduce the backlog of the child qdisc before calling it. Otherwise it would miss the opportunity to call cops->qlen_notify(), in the case of DRR, it resulted in UAF since DRR uses ->qlen_notify() to maintain its active list.
