Cited commit started returning an error when user space requests to dump
the interface's IPv4 addresses and IPv4 is disabled on the interface.
Restore the previous behavior and do not return an error.

I fixed the exact same issue for IPv6 in commit c04f7dfe6ec2 ("ipv6: Fix
address dump when IPv6 is disabled on an interface"), but noted [1] that
I am not doing the change for IPv4 because I am not aware of a way to
disable IPv4 on an interface other than unregistering it. I clearly
missed the above case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
