4.13-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 50317fce2cc70a2bbbc4b42c31bbad510382a53c ]
Davide found the following script triggers a NULL pointer dereference:
ip l a name eth0 type dummy tc q a dev eth0 parent :1 handle 1: htb
This is because for a freshly created netdevice noop_qdisc is attached and when passing 'parent :1', kernel actually tries to match the major handle which is 0 and noop_qdisc has handle 0 so is matched by mistake. Commit 69012ae425d7 tries to fix a similar bug but still misses this case.
Handle 0 is not a valid one, should be just skipped. In fact, kernel uses it as TC_H_UNSPEC.
