net: warn about attempts to register negative ifindex
Since the xarray changes we mix returning valid ifindex and negative errno in a single int returned from dev_index_reserve(). This depends on the fact that ifindexes can't be negative. Otherwise we may insert into the xarray and return a very large negative value. This in turn may break ERR_PTR(). OvS is susceptible to this problem and lacking validation (fix posted separately for net). Reject negative ifindex explicitly. Add a warning because the input validation is better handled by the caller.
