Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/7] net: rtnetlink: allow only one idx saving stats attribute

We can't allow more than one stats attribute which uses the local idx
since the result will be a mess. This is a simple check to make sure
only one is being used at a time. Later when the filter_mask's 32 bits
are over we can switch to a bitmap.
