Currently if the default qdisc setup/init fails, the device ends up with qdisc "noop", which causes all TX packets to get dropped. With the introduction of sysctl net/core/default_qdisc it is possible to change the default qdisc to be more advanced, which opens for the possibility that Qdisc_ops->init() can fail. This patch detect these kind of failures, and choose to fallback to qdisc "noqueue", which is so simple that its init call will not fail. This allows the interface to continue functioning. V2: As this also captures memory failures, which are transient, the device is not kept in IFF_NO_QUEUE state. This allows the net_device to retry to default qdisc assignment.
