[PATCH net] net_sched: sch_fq: fix pacing delay underflow with pacing offload

From: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]>

When pacing offload is enabled (q->offload_horizon > 0),
FQ can dequeue packets early (now < f->time_next_packet).

In this case, the drift calculation (now - f->time_next_packet)
underflows to a large unsigned value.

min(len/2, now - f->time_next_packet) then evaluates to len/2,
incorrectly halving the pacing delay for the next packet.

Fix this by only applying drift compensation if now > f->time_next_packet.

This bug was triggered when flow_max_rate was set on the qdisc
or for non EDT packets (packets with a zero skb->tstamp).
