I'm so sorry about that. The whole patch is below.

[PATCH BUGFIX] ipv4: check optlen for IP_MULTICAST_IF option

Due to man page of setsockopt, if optlen is not valid, kernel should return
-EINVAL. But a simple testcase as following, errno is 0, which means setsockopt
is successful.
	addr.s_addr = inet_addr("192.1.2.3");
	setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MULTICAST_IF, &addr, 1);
	printf("errno is %d\n", errno);

Xiaotian Feng(dfeng@redhat.com) caught the bug. We fix it firstly checking
the availability of optlen and then dealing with the logic like other options.
