Subject: net/sched: fix NULL dereference in the error path of tcf_bpf_init()

From: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@redhat.com>


[ Upstream commit 3239534a79ee6f20cffd974173a1e62e0730e8ac ]

when tcf_bpf_init_from_ops() fails (e.g. because of program having invalid
number of instructions), tcf_bpf_cfg_cleanup() calls bpf_prog_put(NULL) or
bpf_prog_destroy(NULL). Unless CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL is unset, this causes
the following error:

Fix it in tcf_bpf_cfg_cleanup(), ensuring that bpf_prog_{put,destroy}(f)
is called only when f is not NULL.
