Subject: v4 [PATCH 4/9] ipv6: Check return of dev_set_allmulti

From: Wang Chen <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2008 10:59:25 +0800

allmulti might overflow.
Commit: "netdevice: Fix promiscuity and allmulti overflow" in net-next makes
dev_set_promiscuity/allmulti return error number if overflow happened.

Here, we check the positive increment for allmulti to get error return.
