Eric Dumazet 551143d8d9 net_sched: fix a refcount_t issue with noop_qdisc
syzkaller reported a refcount_t warning [1]

Issue here is that noop_qdisc refcnt was never really considered as
a true refcount, since qdisc_destroy() found TCQ_F_BUILTIN set :

if (qdisc->flags & TCQ_F_BUILTIN ||
    !refcount_dec_and_test(&qdisc->refcnt)))
	return;

Meaning that all atomic_inc() we did on noop_qdisc.refcnt were not
really needed, but harmless until refcount_t came.

To fix this problem, we simply need to not increment noop_qdisc.refcnt,
since we never decrement it.

[1]
refcount_t: increment on 0; use-after-free.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
