RDMA/netlink: Do not always generate an ACK for some netlink operations
In rdma_nl_rcv_skb(), the local variable err is assigned the return value
of the supplied callback function, which could be one of
ib_nl_handle_resolve_resp(), ib_nl_handle_set_timeout(), or
ib_nl_handle_ip_res_resp(). These three functions all return skb->len on
success.
rdma_nl_rcv_skb() is merely a copy of netlink_rcv_skb(). The callback
functions used by the latter have the convention: "Returns 0 on success or
a negative error code".
In particular, the statement (equal for both functions):
if (nlh->nlmsg_flags & NLM_F_ACK || err)
implies that rdma_nl_rcv_skb() always will ack a message, independent of
the NLM_F_ACK being set in nlmsg_flags or not.
The fix could be to change the above statement, but it is better to keep
the two *_rcv_skb() functions equal in this respect and instead change the
three callback functions in the rdma subsystem to the correct convention.
