The behaviour visible on either side is identical though.
TBF only affects the ->dequeue path, in which netem only handles delays.
In both cases the total delay is the maximum of the absolute delay
imposed by netem + the delay resulting from rate-limiting (the maximum
because TBF can recharge while netem is delaying). Both values are
independant from each other, so the maximum is always the same.
