Certainly; I think I didn't realize, when you originally pointed out the 
duplicate incrementing, that it was a bug in the original version and 
not in my patch. Otherwise, I would have sent it as a separate patch.

If a note in this patch will suffice, though, I'll definitely do so.

It gets used in sfq_change for moving packets from the old queue into 
the new one. In this case, we don't want to modify sch->q.qlen or 
sch->qstats.backlog, since those don't actually change.

          while ((skb = sfq_q_dequeue(q)) != NULL)
                  sfq_q_enqueue(skb, &tmp, SFQ_TAIL);


I'll improve the description of this patch to make that more clear.
