Cong Wang 50317fce2c net_sched: avoid matching qdisc with zero handle
Davide found the following script triggers a NULL pointer
dereference:

ip l a name eth0 type dummy
tc q a dev eth0 parent :1 handle 1: htb

This is because for a freshly created netdevice noop_qdisc
is attached and when passing 'parent :1', kernel actually
tries to match the major handle which is 0 and noop_qdisc
has handle 0 so is matched by mistake. Commit 69012ae425
tries to fix a similar bug but still misses this case.

Handle 0 is not a valid one, should be just skipped. In
fact, kernel uses it as TC_H_UNSPEC.

Fixes: 69012ae425 ("net: sched: fix handling of singleton qdiscs with qdisc_hash")
Fixes: 59cc1f61f0 ("net: sched:convert qdisc linked list to hashtable")

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
