If the composite nexthop does not have any component nexthops,
we set the reach_nh to discard. One side effect of this behavior
is that multicast ARPs are dropped, since ARP processing happens
in the composite nexthop handling. Hence, retain the composite
nexthop functionality, even if there are no component nexthops.
As part of this change, we also make sure that if a change in
any nexthop fails, we do not disrupt the way it works.
