net: sched: cls_u32 changes to knode must appear atomic to readers

Changes to the cls_u32 classifier must appear atomic to the
readers. Before this patch if a change is requested for both
the exts and ifindex, first the ifindex is updated then the
exts with tcf_exts_change(). This opens a small window where
a reader can have a exts chain with an incorrect ifindex. This
violates the the RCU semantics.

Here we resolve this by always passing u32_set_parms() a copy
of the tc_u_knode to work on and then inserting it into the hash
table after the updates have been successfully applied.

Tested with the following short script:

#tc filter add dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 99 handle 1: \
	       u32 divisor 256

#tc filter add dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 99 \
	       u32 link 1: hashkey mask ffffff00 at 12    \
	       match ip src 192.168.8.0/2

#tc filter add dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 102    \
	       handle 1::10 u32 classid 1:2 ht 1: 	      \
	       match ip src 192.168.8.0/8 match ip tos 0x0a 1e

#tc filter change dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 102 \
		 handle 1::10 u32 classid 1:2 ht 1:        \
		 match ip src 1.1.0.0/8 match ip tos 0x0b 1e
