zd1211rw: Fix multicast filtering.

Browse source 
If multicast parameter (as returned by zd_op_prepare_multicast) has
changed, no bit in changed_flags is set. To handle this situation, we do
not return if changed_flags is 0. If we do so, we will have some issue
with IPv6 which uses multicast for link layer address resolution.
