[NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_log: fix EPERM when binding/unbinding and inst…

…ance 0 exists

When binding or unbinding to an address family, the res_id is usually set
to zero. When logging instance 0 already exists and is owned by a different
process, this makes nfunl_recv_config return -EPERM without performing
the bind operation.

Since no operation on the foreign logging instance itself was requested,
this is incorrect. Move bind/unbind commands before the queue instance
permissions checks.

Also remove an incorrect comment.
