Subject: [NETLINK]: Directly return -EINTR from netlink_dump_start()
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.22-rc1~1128^2~195
X-Git-Url: https://bbs.cooldavid.org/git/?p=net-next-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=c702e8047fe74648f7852a9c1de781b0d5a98402

[NETLINK]: Directly return -EINTR from netlink_dump_start()

Now that all users of netlink_dump_start() use netlink_run_queue()
to process the receive queue, it is possible to return -EINTR from
netlink_dump_start() directly, therefore simplying the callers.
