The existing qdiscs that set TCQ_F_MQROOT don't use sch_tree_lock. However, hardware-offloaded HTB will start setting this flag while also using sch_tree_lock. The current implementation of sch_tree_lock basically locks on qdisc->dev_queue->qdisc, and it works fine when the tree is attached to some queue. However, it's not the case for MQROOT qdiscs: such a qdisc is the root itself, and its dev_queue just points to queue 0, while not actually being used, because there are real per-queue qdiscs. This patch changes the logic of sch_tree_lock and sch_tree_unlock to lock the qdisc itself if it's the MQROOT.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
