iproute: Fix errno propagation from rtnl_talk

Callers of rtnl_talk check errno value for their needs. In particular, the addrs
and routes restoring code validly reports success if the EEXISTS is in there.

However, the errno value can be sometimes screwed up by the perror call. Thus
we should only set it _after_ the message was emitted.
