This one is caused by a regression in iproute2. The attached patch
should fix it.
commit b3d80773099c13f60598857901cb2724c210614f

    f_fw: fix compat mode
    
    The kernel takes a lack of options as indication that the fw classifier
    should operate in compatibility mode, where marks are mapped directly to
    classids.
    
    Commit e22b42a (tc mask patch) broke this by adding an empty TCA_OPTIONS
    attribute even if no handle is specified. Restore the old behaviour.
