Subject: [PATCH bluetooth-next] 6lowpan: iphc: fix invalid case handling

This patch fixes the return value in a case which should never occur.
Instead returning "-EINVAL" we return LOWPAN_IPHC_DAM_00 which is
invalid on context based addresses. Also change the WARN_ON_ONCE to
WARN_ONCE which was suggested by Dan Carpenter.
