netstat -s: sysctl: net.inet.pim.stats: No such file or directory

[Andre Guibert de Bruet]

Hi,

Running netstat -s yields the following:

igmp:
	0 messages received
	0 messages received with too few bytes
	0 messages received with bad checksum
	0 membership queries received
	0 membership queries received with invalid field(s)
	0 membership reports received
	0 membership reports received with invalid field(s)
	0 membership reports received for groups to which we belong
	0 membership reports sent
netstat: sysctl: net.inet.pim.stats: No such file or directory
ip6:
	0 total packets received
	0 with size smaller than minimum
	0 with data size < data length

I'm seeing this on a current build from 20040115 as well as a 4.9-stable
from 20040118. I've attached a patch that removes this warning. We should
print out PIM stats if it's enabled in the kernel and not worry users that
don't have it on.
