[PATCH] net: sched: fix possible refcount leak in tc_new_tfilter()

From: Hangyu Hua
Date: Thu Sep 15 2022 - 04:58:29 EST


tfilter_put need to be called to put the refount got by tp->ops->get to
avoid possible refcount leak when chain->tmplt_ops == NULL or
chain->tmplt_ops != tp->ops.

Fixes: 7d5509fa0d3d ("net: sched: extend proto ops with 'put' callback")
