It was added in commit e57a784d ("pkt_sched: set root qdisc
before change() in attach_default_qdiscs()") to hide duplicates
from "tc qdisc show" for incative deivices.

After 59cc1f61 ("net: sched: convert qdisc linked list to hashtable")
it triggered when classful qdisc is added to inactive device because
default qdiscs are added before switching root qdisc.

Anyway after commit ea327469 ("net: sched: avoid duplicates in
qdisc dump") duplicates are filtered right in dumper.
