Maybe:

if (ipv4_is_zeronet(nla_get_in_addr(attr)))

It's consistent with the ipv4_is_multicast() check above it.

This looks fine.

Please add a test case in star_g_common() and sg_common() at
tools/testing/selftests/net/test_vxlan_mdb.sh. You can squash it into
this patch. We already have test cases for error cases there.

BTW, are you going to send v2 for [1]?

Thanks
