Commit 08a0063df3ae ("net/sched: flower: Move filter handle initialization earlier") moved filter handle initialization but an assignment of the handle to fnew->handle is done regardless of fold value. This is wrong because if fold != NULL (so fold->handle == handle) no new handle is allocated and passed handle is assigned to fnew->handle. Then if any subsequent action in fl_change() fails then the handle value is removed from IDR that is incorrect as we will have still valid old filter instance with handle that is not present in IDR. Fix this issue by moving the assignment so it is done only when passed fold == NULL.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
