=========> this part looks suspicious. Why is reset invoking
a dequeue? Shouldnt a destroy just purge the queue?

It is worrisome to fix the core code for this. The root cause seems to
be codel. Dont have time but in general, reset would be something like:

struct fq_codel_sched_data *q = qdisc_priv(sch);
qdisc_reset(q)

or something along those lines...
But certainly dequeue semantics dont seem right there..
