net_sched: let qdisc_put() accept NULL pointer
When tcf_block_get() fails in sfb_init(), q->qdisc is still a NULL
pointer which leads to a crash in sfb_destroy(). Similar for
sch_dsmark.
Instead of fixing each separately, Linus suggested to just accept
NULL pointer in qdisc_put(), which would make callers easier.
(For sch_dsmark, the bug probably exists long before commit
6529eaba33f0.)
Fixes: 6529eaba33f0 ("net: sched: introduce tcf block infractructure")
