Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan f185de2b4e ANDROID: GKI: Revert "genetlink: disallow subscribing to unknown mcast groups"
Commit 5ad6300524 ("genetlink: disallow subscribing to unknown
mcast groups") disallows userspace to subscribe to groups that don't
exist in kernel. As a result, communication between processes is
not possible unless they explicitly register a dummy group with the
kernel even if the communication is between userspace processes
only. NETLINK_USERSOCK cannot be used here since userspace processes
would require CAP_NET_ADMIN to receive multicast messages which
is available for priveleged processes only.

Fix this problem by reverting the change till a solution is
determined internally and upstream discussion.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
