    netfilter: ctnetlink: fix echo if not subscribed to any	multicast group
    
    This patch fixes echoing if the socket that has sent the request to
    create/update/delete an entry is not subscribed to any multicast
    group. With the current code, ctnetlink would not send the echo
    message via unicast as nfnetlink_send() would be skip.
