net/sched: matchall: Fix configuration race
In the current version, the matchall internal state is split into two structs: cls_matchall_head and cls_matchall_filter. This makes little sense, as matchall instance supports only one filter, and there is no situation where one exists and the other does not. In addition, that led to some races when filter was deleted while packet was processed. Unify that two structs into one, thus simplifying the process of matchall creation and deletion. As a result, the new, delete and get callbacks have a dummy implementation where all the work is done in destroy and change callbacks, as was done in cls_cgroup.

userspace will result in a SIGKILL and also cause the offending pages to be claimed so they are no longer used in future tasks. SIGKILL is used to ensure that the process does not try to coredump and result in an attempt to read the memory again from within kernel space. Although there is a HV call to scrub the memory (mem_scrub), there is no easy way to guarantee that the real memory address(es) are not used by other tasks. Clearing the error with mem_scrub would zero the memory and cause the other processes to proceed with bad data. The handling of other non-resumable errors remain unchanged and will cause a panic. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
