[PATCH iproute2 net-next] tc: m_mirred: Fix parsing of 'index' optional argument

[Shmulik Ladkani <shmulik.ladkani@gmail.com>]

Code in parse_mirred() suggests "index" argument can be placed either
after the "egress" clause, or as the first argument (after "action mirred").

However, parse_egress() fails to correctly parse "index" if it's the
first argument.

For example:

 # tc filter add ... action mirred index 5
 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument
 (unnecessary RTNETLINK issued, should have been parse error)

 # tc filter add ... action mirred index 5 egress redirect dev eth0
 bad action type egress
 (should have been parsed successfully)

Fix parse_egress as follows:
 - continue parsing after valid "index" is seen
 - don't issue the RTNETLINK unless valid "egress" is seen

 Well, both man and usage suggest "index" comes after the egress clause:
    tc ... action mirred DIRECTION ACTION [ index INDEX ] dev DEVICENAME
 So an alternative would be banning "index" as 1st argument in parse_mirred.
