Pablo Neira Ayuso 9f00d9776b netlink: hide struct module parameter in netlink_kernel_create
This patch defines netlink_kernel_create as a wrapper function of
__netlink_kernel_create to hide the struct module *me parameter
(which seems to be THIS_MODULE in all existing netlink subsystems).

Suggested by David S. Miller.

Pablo Neira Ayuso a31f2d17b3 netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_create
This patch adds the following structure:

struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
        unsigned int    groups;
        void            (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
        struct mutex    *cb_mutex;
};

That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.

I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.

That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.

This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

And use nlmsg_data() while we're here too.

David S. Miller 4e24ffa4d9 infiniband: Stop using NLA_PUT*().
These macros contain a hidden goto, and are thus extremely error
prone and make code hard to audit.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 80d326fab5 netlink: add netlink_dump_control structure for netlink_dump_start()
Davem considers that the argument list of this interface is getting
out of control. This patch tries to address this issue following
his proposal:

struct netlink_dump_control c = { .dump = dump, .done = done, ... };

netlink_dump_start(..., &c);

Suggested by David S. Miller.

Paul Gortmaker b108d9764c infiniband: add in export.h for files using EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE
These were getting it implicitly via device.h --> module.h but
we are going to stop that when we clean up the headers.

Fix these in advance so the tree remains biscect-clean.

Greg Rose c7ac8679be rtnetlink: Compute and store minimum ifinfo dump size
The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to
a single page.  This is not enough for additional interface info
available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in
which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately
40 VFs were created per interface.

Implement a new function pointer for the rtnl_register service that will
calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate
enough data to satisfy the request.
