sched: address a potential NULL pointer dereference in the GRED scheduler.
[ Upstream commit 115ef44a98220fddfab37a39a19370497cd718b9 ]
If kzalloc in gred_init returns a NULL pointer, the code follows the
error handling path, invoking gred_destroy. This, in turn, calls
gred_offload, where memset could receive a NULL pointer as input,
potentially leading to a kernel crash.
When table->opt is NULL in gred_init(), gred_change_table_def()
is not called yet, so it is not necessary to call ->ndo_setup_tc()
in gred_offload().
