net/sched: cls_u32: Fix reference counter leak leading to overflow

jira VULN-8824
cve CVE-2023-3609
commit-author Lee Jones <[email protected]>
commit 04c5538

In the event of a failure in tcf_change_indev(), u32_set_parms() will
immediately return without decrementing the recently incremented
reference counter.  If this happens enough times, the counter will
rollover and the reference freed, leading to a double free which can be
used to do 'bad things'.

In order to prevent this, move the point of possible failure above the
point where the reference counter is incremented.  Also save any
meaningful return values to be applied to the return data at the
appropriate point in time.

This issue was caught with KASAN.
