Because the following should work :

tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root prio bands 3

(later...)

tc qdisc change dev eth0 root prio bands 5 // memory allocation failure

We must not destroy the qdisc on a change operation if it fails.

Only the init should clean the qdisc state/memory/children since qdisc
wont be created for real.

Presumably we should commit changes on qdisc only if the whole
->change() succeeded, but I guess lot of qdisc are buggy in this
respect.
