Subject: [PATCH] Network namespace support for PIM-SM (IPv6)

Here are some minor changes to enable using IPv6 PIM-SM with network
namespaces:

  - make PIM register vifs netns local
  - make PIM available in all network namespaces (if CONFIG_IPV6_PIMSM_V2)
    by adding the protocol handler when multicast routing is initialized
