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.
