From 22dd483721939b4ea22d5d3925e69112f63c42bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Sat, 22 Dec 2007 14:03:25 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Fix computation of SKB size for quota messages Fix computation of size of skb needed for quota message. We should use netlink provided functions and not just an ad-hoc number. Also don't print the return value from nla_put_foo() as it is always -1.
