Got it,
The test still hangs with the provided patch.

+ tc qdisc add dev lo root handle 1: htb default 1
+ tc chain add dev lo
+ tc filter del dev lo chain 0 parent 1: prio 0
[ 68.790030][ T6704] [+]
[ 68.790060][ T6704] chain refcnt 2
[ 68.790951][ T6704] [-]
+ tc filter add dev lo chain 0 parent 1:
<hangs>

Also please add this test to tdc, it should be straightforward.
