Subject: [PATCH] connector: Change the judgment conditions for clearing proc_event_num_listeners

From: wangkeqi <wangkeqiwang@...iglobal.com>

It is inaccurate to judge whether proc_event_num_listeners is
cleared by cn_netlink_send_mult returning -ESRCH.
In the case of stress-ng netlink-proc, -ESRCH will always be returned,
because netlink_broadcast_filtered will return -ESRCH,
which may cause stress-ng netlink-proc performance degradation.
Therefore, the judgment condition is modified to whether
there is a listener.
