->dequeue and ->peek are somewhat tied together, so I think we should
only use the noop variants if both are unset. Whether this should be
checked here of before merging new qdiscs is a different question of
course :)

Actually, there is much less users of ->peek. Do you mean to always check
for NULL before using? It was meant mainly for these non-work-conserving
qdisc in case patch 6/6 isn't merged. Of course, IMHO it should be enough
to implement this always (while merging), but this code above could be
misleading what is optional/mandatory. (Please make it clear which way do
you prefer and I'll redo, no problem.)

No, I meant that peek = noop_qdisc_ops.peek and dequeue = something_else
doesn't make much sense. But I think declaring this an API usage error
and catching it during review is fine.

As a matter of fact I treated this more symbolically: to declare the methods
which don't need checking. Is it possible to forget about ->dequeue()? And
after all, all qdisc but ingress declare this, so logically this could be
removed.
