In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sch_hfsc: make hfsc_qlen_notify() idempotent
hfsc_qlen_notify() is not idempotent either and not friendly
to its callers, like fq_codel_dequeue(). Let's make it idempotent
to ease qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() callers' life:
1. update_vf() decreases cl->cl_nactive, so we can check whether it is
non-zero before calling it.
2. eltree_remove() always removes RB node cl->el_node, but we can use
RB_EMPTY_NODE() + RB_CLEAR_NODE() to make it safe.
