4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 5bf7f8185f7c7112decdfe3d3e5c5d5e67f099a1 ]
tcf_act_police_init() can fail after the idr has been successfully reserved (e.g., qdisc_get_rtab() may return NULL). When this happens, subsequent attempts to configure a police rule using the same idr value systematiclly fail with -ENOSPC:
# tc action add action police rate 1000 burst 1000 drop index 100 RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory We have an error talking to the kernel # tc action add action police rate 1000 burst 1000 drop index 100 RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device We have an error talking to the kernel # tc action add action police rate 1000 burst 1000 drop index 100 RTNETLINK answers: No space left on device ...
Fix this in the error path of tcf_act_police_init(), calling tcf_idr_release() in place of tcf_idr_cleanup().
