[ Upstream commit 38b4f18d56372e1e21771ab7b0357b853330186c ]

gred_change_table_def() takes a pointer to TCA_GRED_DPS attribute,
and expects it will be able to interpret its contents as
struct tc_gred_sopt. Pass the correct gred attribute, instead of
TCA_OPTIONS.

This bug meant the table definition could never be changed after
Qdisc was initialized (unless whatever TCA_OPTIONS contained both
passed netlink validation and was a valid struct tc_gred_sopt...).

Old behaviour:
$ ip link add type dummy
$ tc qdisc replace dev dummy0 parent root handle 7: \
gred setup vqs 4 default 0
$ tc qdisc replace dev dummy0 parent root handle 7: \
gred setup vqs 4 default 0
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

Now:
$ ip link add type dummy
$ tc qdisc replace dev dummy0 parent root handle 7: \
gred setup vqs 4 default 0
$ tc qdisc replace dev dummy0 parent root handle 7: \
gred setup vqs 4 default 0
$ tc qdisc replace dev dummy0 parent root handle 7: \
gred setup vqs 4 default 0
