net_sched: qdisc_alloc_handle() can be too slow

When trying to allocate ~32768 qdiscs using autohandle mechanism, we can
fill the space managed by kernel (handles in [8000-FFFF]:0000 range)

But O(N^2) qdisc_alloc_handle() loops 0x10000 times instead of 0x8000

time tc add qdisc add dev eth0 parent 10:7fff pfifo limit 10
RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory

INFO: rcu_sched_state detected stall on CPU 0 (t=60000 jiffies)

Half number of loops, and add a cond_resched() call.
We hold rtnl at this point.
