[PATCH net v2 01/10] Revert "net/sched: Restrict conditions for adding duplicating netems to qdisc tree"

[Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>]

This reverts commit ec8e0e3d7adef940cdf9475e2352c0680189d14e.

The restriction breaks valid uses of netem such as using different
netem values on different branches of HTB. This even broke some
of the examples in the netem documentation.

The intent of blocking recursion is handled in next patch.
