this broke !COMPAT builds in current -git. Fix below. NOTE: fix is just 
a quick guess.

x86.git testing found the following build error on -git:

  ERROR: "compat_mc_getsockopt" [net/ipv6/ipv6.ko] undefined!

with this config:

  http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Wed_Apr_30_22_23_37_CEST_2008.bad

this hits on !COMPAT + IPV6 modular builds. It is caused by commit
42908c69f6 ("net: Add compat support for getsockopt (MCAST_MSFILTER)").

this fix here is just a quick guess - i _suspect_ that
do_ipv6_getsockopt() will just DTRT and return -EINVAL but i
havent checked. It obviously solves the build issue.
