    genetlink: fix genlmsg_multicast() bug · 220815a9

    Unfortunately, I introduced a tremendously stupid bug into
    genlmsg_multicast() when doing all those multicast group
    changes: it adjusts the group number, but then passes it
    to genlmsg_multicast_netns() which does that again.
    
    Somehow, my tests failed to catch this, so add a warning
    into genlmsg_multicast_netns() and remove the offending
    group ID adjustment.
    
    Also add a warning to the similar code in other functions
    so people who misuse them are more loudly warned.
