From d35b685640aeb39eb4f5e98c75e8e001e406f9a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Graf Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2007 23:28:46 -0700 Subject: [NETLINK]: Ignore !NLM_F_REQUEST messages directly in netlink_run_queue() netlink_rcv_skb() is changed to skip messages which don't have the NLM_F_REQUEST bit to avoid every netlink family having to perform this check on their own.
