net: sched: sch_multiq: fix possible OOB write in multiq_tune()

Otherwise, an out-of-bounds write will occur.

Mantic: Clean cherry-pick
Jammy:  fixed via stable

Bionic: not affected

Trusty: not affected

[Test case]

would be visible to the user via unpredicted system behavior or a system
crash.
