Subject: [PATCH iproute2] ip: do not exit if RTM_GETNSID failed

`ip addr` when run under qemu-user-riscv64, fails. This likely is
due to qemu-5.1 not doing translation of RTM_GETNSID calls.

2: host0@if5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 5a:44:da:1a:c4:0b brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
request send failed: Operation not supported

Treat the situation similar to an absence of procfs.
