Series [v2,1/6] backports: rename magic functions for netlink parsing | expand

Commit Message

Johannes Berg Oct. 2, 2018, 7:32 p.m. UTC
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Replace all the different nested versions of generic netlink
backport with a single one, covering from < 3.13 all the way
to the upcoming netlink policy improvements in 4.20.
