tcf_chain_destroy() is called by tcf_block_put() and tcf_chain_put(). tcf_chain_put() is refcn'ed and paired with tcf_chain_get(), but tcf_block_put() is not, it should be paired with tcf_block_get() and we still need to decrease the refcnt. However, tcf_block_put() is special, it stores the chains too, we have to detach them if it is not the last user.
What's more, index 0 is not special at all, it should be treated like other chains. This also makes the code more readable.
