net/sched: cbs: fix port_rate miscalculation

Browse source

The Credit Based Shaper heavily depends on link speed to calculate
the scheduling credits, we can't properly calculate the credits if the
device has failed to report the link speed.

In that case we can't dequeue packets assuming a wrong port rate that will
result into an inconsistent credit distribution.

This patch makes sure we fail to dequeue case:

1) __ethtool_get_link_ksettings() reports error or 2) the ethernet driver
failed to set the ksettings' speed value (setting link speed to
SPEED_UNKNOWN).

Additionally we properly re calculate the port rate whenever the link speed
is changed.
