bridge: mcast: Fail MDB get request on empty entry
When user space deletes a port from an MDB entry, the port is removed synchronously. If this was the last port in the entry and the entry is not joined by the host itself, then the entry is scheduled for deletion via a timer. The above means that it is possible for the MDB get netlink request to retrieve an empty entry which is scheduled for deletion. This is problematic as after deleting the last port in an entry, user space cannot rely on a non-zero return code from the MDB get request as an indication that the port was successfully removed. Fix by returning an error when the entry's port list is empty and the entry is not joined by the host.
