[PATCH iproute2-next 3/3] ipmroute: better error message if no kernel mroute

[Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>]

From: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com>

If kernel does not support the IP multicast address family,
then it will report all routes (PF_UNSPEC).
Give the user a better error message and abort the command.
