Davide Caratti af0cb3fa3f net/sched: fix false lockdep warning on qdisc root lock
Xiumei and Christoph reported the following lockdep splat, complaining of
the qdisc root lock being taken twice:

 ============================================
 WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
 6.7.0-rc3+ #598 Not tainted
 --------------------------------------------
 swapper/2/0 is trying to acquire lock:
 ffff888177190110 (&sch->q.lock){+.-.}-{2:2}, at: __dev_queue_xmit+0x1560/0x2e70

 but task is already holding lock:
 ffff88811995a110 (&sch->q.lock){+.-.}-{2:2}, at: __dev_queue_xmit+0x1560/0x2e70

 other info that might help us debug this:
  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0
        ----
   lock(&sch->q.lock);
   lock(&sch->q.lock);

  *** DEADLOCK ***

  May be due to missing lock nesting notation

This happens when TC does a mirred egress redirect from the root qdisc of
device A to the root qdisc of device B. As long as these two locks aren't
protecting the same qdisc, they can be acquired in chain: add a per-qdisc
lockdep key to silence false warnings.
This dynamic key should safely replace the static key we have in sch_htb:
it was added to allow enqueueing to the device "direct qdisc" while still
holding the qdisc root lock.

v2: don't use static keys anymore in HTB direct qdiscs (thanks Eric Dumazet)

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 reStructuredText 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.
