net/sched: Return NULL when htb_lookup_leaf encounters an empty rbtree

[ Upstream commit 0e1d5d9b5c5966e2e42e298670808590db5ed628 ]

htb_lookup_leaf has a BUG_ON that can trigger with the following:

tc qdisc del dev lo root
tc qdisc add dev lo root handle 1: htb default 1
tc class add dev lo parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 64bit
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 1:1 handle 2: netem
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 2:1 handle 3: blackhole
ping -I lo -c1 -W0.001 127.0.0.1

The root cause is the following:

1. htb_dequeue calls htb_dequeue_tree which calls the dequeue handler on
   the selected leaf qdisc
2. netem_dequeue calls enqueue on the child qdisc
3. blackhole_enqueue drops the packet and returns a value that is not
   just NET_XMIT_SUCCESS
4. Because of this, netem_dequeue calls qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog, and
   since qlen is now 0, it calls htb_qlen_notify -> htb_deactivate ->
   htb_deactiviate_prios -> htb_remove_class_from_row -> htb_safe_rb_erase
5. As this is the only class in the selected hprio rbtree,
   __rb_change_child in __rb_erase_augmented sets the rb_root pointer to
   NULL
6. Because blackhole_dequeue returns NULL, netem_dequeue returns NULL,
   which causes htb_dequeue_tree to call htb_lookup_leaf with the same
   hprio rbtree, and fail the BUG_ON

The function graph for this scenario is shown here:
 0)               |  htb_enqueue() {
 0) + 13.635 us   |    netem_enqueue();
 0)   4.719 us    |    htb_activate_prios();
 0) # 2249.199 us |  }
 0)               |  htb_dequeue() {
 0)   2.355 us    |    htb_lookup_leaf();
 0)               |    netem_dequeue() {
 0) + 11.061 us   |      blackhole_enqueue();
 0)               |      qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() {
 0)               |        qdisc_lookup_rcu() {
 0)   1.873 us    |          qdisc_match_from_root();
 0)   6.292 us    |        }
 0)   1.894 us    |        htb_search();
 0)               |        htb_qlen_notify() {
 0)   2.655 us    |          htb_deactivate_prios();
 0)   6.933 us    |        }
 0) + 25.227 us   |      }
 0)   1.983 us    |      blackhole_dequeue();
 0) + 86.553 us   |    }
 0) # 2932.761 us |    qdisc_warn_nonwc();
 0)               |    htb_lookup_leaf() {
 0)               |      BUG_ON();
 ------------------------------------------

The full original bug report can be seen here [1].

We can fix this just by returning NULL instead of the BUG_ON,
as htb_dequeue_tree returns NULL when htb_lookup_leaf returns
NULL.
