When set the GRE item, GRE key should follow after GRE header, or the
header gre_item pointer used by the key will be invalid.
Currently in the mlx5_flow_validate_item_gre_key() function, the header
gre_item pointer is access before checking if the key is after the
header or not. Once the key item is before the header, invalid gre_item
pointer access happens.
Move the gre_item pointer access after the GRE header check to avoid the
crash issue.
