When the length of a GSO packet in the tbf qdisc is larger than the burst
size configured the packet will be segmented by the tbf_segment function.
Whenever this function is used to enqueue SKBs, the backlog statistic of
the tbf is not increased correctly. This can lead to underflows of the
'backlog' byte-statistic value when these packets are dequeued from tbf.
Reproduce the bug:
Ensure that the sender machine has GSO enabled. Configured the tbf on
the outgoing interface of the machine as follows (burstsize = 1 MTU):
$ tc qdisc add dev <oif> root handle 1: tbf rate 50Mbit burst 1514 latency 50ms
Send bulk TCP traffic out via this interface, e.g., by running an iPerf3
client on this machine. Check the qdisc statistics:
$ tc -s qdisc show dev <oif>
The 'backlog' byte-statistic has incorrect values while traffic is
transferred, e.g., high values due to u32 underflows. When the transfer
is stopped, the value is != 0, which should never happen.
This patch fixes this bug by updating the statistics correctly, even if
single SKBs of a GSO SKB cannot be enqueued.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
