- The error_disable_loopback / error_disable_wan / error_unlock paths only
  revert the requesting dev. The earlier airoha_disable_qos_for_gdm34(wan_dev)
  demotion is never undone.
  Could a TC_HTB_CREATE that returns an error to userspace then leave the
  system with no WAN GDM3/GDM4 device, with the previously-working sibling
  silently flipped to LAN, its QDMA migrated to QDMA0, GDM2 loopback torn
  down, and its forwarding rewritten to PPE1?
  Should the failure paths re-promote wan_dev (re-call airoha_enable_qos_for_gdm34
  or an equivalent restore helper on it) before unlocking and returning?

  - This is the same item reported by sashiko-gemini in [0]. In my previous
    reply I have explained why I do not think it worths to re-promote the
    original interface in case of failure in airoha_enable_qos_for_gdm34().

Regards,
Lorenzo
