net: sched: fix panic in rate estimators

Doing the following commands on a non idle network device
panics the box instantly, because cpu_bstats gets overwritten
by stats.

tc qdisc add dev eth0 root <your_favorite_qdisc>
... some traffic (one packet is enough) ...
tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root est 1sec 4sec <your_favorite_qdisc>
