net/sched: fq_codel: local packets no longer count against memory limit

Commit 95b58430abe7 ("fq_codel: add memory limitation per queue")
claimed that the 32Mb default was "reasonable even for heavy duty usages."

In practice, this is not the case.

Packets that are associated with local sockets sk_wmem_alloc
do not really need additional memory control.
