[ 23/72] net_sched: Bug in netem reordering

[Greg KH]

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

------------------


From: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@xxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit eb10192447370f19a215a8c2749332afa1199d46 ]

Not now, but it looks you are correct. q->qdisc is NULL until another
additional qdisc is attached (beside tfifo). See 50612537e9ab2969312.
The following patch should work.
