net_sched: sch_sfq: fix a potential crash on gso_skb handling

[ Upstream commit 82ffbe7776d0ac084031f114167712269bf3d832 ]

SFQ has an assumption of always being able to queue at least one packet.

However, after the blamed commit, sch->q.len can be inflated by packets
in sch->gso_skb, and an enqueue() on an empty SFQ qdisc can be followed
by an immediate drop.

Fix sfq_drop() to properly clear q->tail in this situation.

Tested:

ip netns add lb
ip link add dev to-lb type veth peer name in-lb netns lb
ethtool -K to-lb tso off                 # force qdisc to requeue gso_skb
ip netns exec lb ethtool -K in-lb gro on # enable NAPI
ip link set dev to-lb up
ip -netns lb link set dev in-lb up
ip addr add dev to-lb 192.168.20.1/24
ip -netns lb addr add dev in-lb 192.168.20.2/24
tc qdisc replace dev to-lb root sfq limit 100

ip netns exec lb netserver
