If you flush (delete) a filter chain other than chain 0 (such as when
deleting the device), the kernel may run into a use-after-free. The
chain refcount must not be decremented unless we are sure we are done
with the chain.
To reproduce the bug, run:
ip link add dtest type dummy
tc qdisc add dev dtest ingress
tc filter add dev dtest chain 1 parent ffff: flower
ip link del dtest
