This condition implies that a socket can bind to a non-existant
group, which shouldn't be possible.

This should probably happen with the table grabbed to avoid races
with concurrent broadcasts.

Unfortunately that doesn't prevent races with netlink_has_listeners
since its lockless (and should really stay that way).
