[ Upstream commit df45bf84e4f5a48f23d4b1a07d21d566e8b587b2 ]
Since the block is freed with last chain being put, once we reach the end of iteration of list_for_each_entry_safe, the block may be already freed. I'm hitting this only by creating and deleting clsact:

Fix this by holding the block also by chain 0 and put chain 0 explicitly, out of the list_for_each_entry_safe loop at the very end of tcf_block_put_ext.
