net: sched: use temporary variable for actions indexes
Currently init call of all actions (except ipt) init their 'parm' structure as a direct pointer to nla data in skb. This leads to race condition when some of the filter actions were initialized successfully (and were assigned with idr action index that was written directly into nla data), but then were deleted and retried (due to following action module missing or classifier-initiated retry), in which case action init code tries to insert action to idr with index that was assigned on previous iteration. During retry the index can be reused by another action that was inserted concurrently, which causes unintended action sharing between filters. To fix described race condition, save action idr index to temporary stack-allocated variable instead on nla data.
