Subject: ipmr: fix mfc notification flags
From: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 65886f439ab0fdc2dff20d1fa87afb98c6717472 ]
Commit 8cd3ac9f9b7b ("ipmr: advertise new mfc entries via rtnl") reuses the
function ipmr_fill_mroute() to notify mfc events.
But this function was used only for dump and thus was always setting the
flag NLM_F_MULTI, which is wrong in case of a single notification.
Libraries like libnl will wait forever for NLMSG_DONE.
