Subject: net: vrf: correct FRA_L3MDEV encode type

From: Jeff Barnhill <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 18129a24983906eaf2a2d448ce4b83e27091ebe2 ]

FRA_L3MDEV is defined as U8, but is being added as a U32 attribute. On big endian architecture, this results in the l3mdev entry not being added to the FIB rules.

Fixes 1aa6c4f6b8cd8 ("net: vrf: Add l3mdev rules on first device create")
