It uses different ioctl value, so it doesn't invert result. Instead
of !SIOCDIFADDR I want more explicit SIOCAIFADDR.

Oops.  So it is non-stylistic in a different way.  cmd can only be
SIOCDIFADDR, or one or both of SIOCAIFADDR.  Than is unclear.  Assuming
that the original code is correct and that all 3 cases can occur,
inversion would break all 3 cases, while the non-stylistic change breaks
only the O_SIOCAIFADDR case.

Since there can be more than 2 cases and it isn't clear that there are
at most 3, any boolean test on 1 of the cases is going to be unclear.
Positive logic will be clearer, but that requires comparison with 2
cases.  The current code use negative logic to select these 2 cases as
the complement of the other case.
