netns: Fix crash by making igmp per namespace

This patch makes the multicast socket to be per namespace.

When a network namespace is created, other than the init_net and a
multicast packet is received, the kernel goes to a hang or a kernel panic.

How to reproduce ?

 * create a child network namespace
 * create a pair virtual device veth
    * ip link add type veth
 * move one side to the pair network device to the child namespace
    * ip link set netns <childpid> dev veth1
 * ping -I veth0 224.0.0.1

The bug appears because the function ip_mc_init_dev does not initialize
the different multicast fields as it exits because it is not the init_net.
