Since my last commit "rtnetlink: add new function rtnl_echo_talk()" we
return the kernel rtnl exit code directly, which breaks some kernel
selftest checking. As there are still a lot of tests checking -2 as the
error return value, to keep backward compatibility, let's keep using
-2 for all the rtnl return values.

Stephen, I believe this patch was missed. It appears as "New, archived"
in patchwork:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20221108124344.192326-1-liuhangbin@gmail.com/

Can you please apply it? It fixes regressions in kernel selftests that
use iproute2 with blamed commit. See:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/Y2oWDRIIR6gjkM4a@shredder/

Thanks
