       (sch_sfq: dont put new flow at the end of
      flows)
      
      As Jesper found out, patch sounded great but has bad side effects.
      
      In stress situation, pushing new flows in front of the queue can prevent
      old flows doing any progress. Packets can stay in SFQ queue for
      unlimited amount of time.
      
      It's possible to add heuristics to limit this problem, but this would
      add complexity outside of SFQ scope.
      
      A more sensible answer to Dave Taht concerns (who reported the issued I
      tried to solve in original commit) is probably to use a qdisc hierarchy
      so that high prio packets dont enter a potentially crowded SFQ qdisc.
