When 'nla_parse_nested_deprecated' failed, it's no need to
BUG() here, return -EINVAL is ok.

Avoid assumptions on the failure reason:

	int err;

	err = nla_parse_nested_deprecated();
	if (err < 0)
		return err;

seems like this patch and a similar fix for the IPv6 version of
set_link_af should go to net rather than net-next.
