Kernel uses tcindex_change() to change an existing filter properties.
Yet the problem is that, during the process of changing, if `old_r` is retrieved from `p->perfect`, then kernel uses tcindex_alloc_perfect_hash() to newly allocate filter results, uses tcindex_filter_result_init() to clear the old filter result, without destroying its tcf_exts structure, which triggers the above memory leak.
To be more specific, there are only two source for the `old_r`, according to the tcindex_lookup(). `old_r` is retrieved from `p->perfect`, or `old_r` is retrieved from `p->h`.
* If `old_r` is retrieved from `p->perfect`, kernel uses tcindex_alloc_perfect_hash() to newly allocate the filter results. Then `r` is assigned with `cp->perfect + handle`, which is newly allocated. So condition `old_r && old_r != r` is true in this situation, and kernel uses tcindex_filter_result_init() to clear the old filter result, without destroying its tcf_exts structure
* If `old_r` is retrieved from `p->h`, then `p->perfect` is NULL according to the tcindex_lookup(). Considering that `cp->h` is directly copied from `p->h` and `p->perfect` is NULL, `r` is assigned with `tcindex_lookup(cp, handle)`, whose value should be the same as `old_r`, so condition `old_r && old_r != r` is false in this situation, kernel ignores using tcindex_filter_result_init() to clear the old filter result.
So only when `old_r` is retrieved from `p->perfect` does kernel use tcindex_filter_result_init() to clear the old filter result, which triggers the above memory leak.
Considering that there already exists a tc_filter_wq workqueue to destroy the old tcindex_data by tcindex_partial_destroy_work() at the end of tcindex_set_parms(), this patch solves this memory leak bug by removing this old filter result clearing part and delegating it to the tc_filter_wq workqueue.
Note that this patch doesn't introduce any other issues. If `old_r` is retrieved from `p->perfect`, this patch just delegates old filter result clearing part to the tc_filter_wq workqueue; If `old_r` is retrieved from `p->h`, kernel doesn't reach the old filter result clearing part, so removing this part has no effect.
