stephen hemminger 119b3d3869 sfq: deadlock in error path ...

The change to allow divisor to be a parameter (in 2.6.38-rc1)
 commit 817fb15dfd
introduced a possible deadlock caught by sparse.

The scheduler tree lock was left locked in the case of an incorrect
divisor value. Simplest fix is to move test outside of lock
which also solves problem of partial update.
