Subject: [PATCH] fixing adaptive-red average queuing in man/man8/tc-red.8

This patch fixes a mistake in documenting adaptive-RED's formula of
average queuing in man. The ARED's target average queuing is
(max+min)/2.

 Goal of Adaptive RED is to make 'probability' dynamic value between
1% and 50% to reach the target average queue :
-.B (max - min) / 2
+.B (max + min) / 2
