This is the continuation (series #3) of the work done to align netlink
attributes when these attributes contain some 64-bit fields.

It's the last patchset from what I've seen.

The last user of nla_put_u64() is block/drbd. This module does not use
standard netlink API (see all the stuff in include/linux/genl_magic_struct.h
and include/linux/genl_magic_func.h). I didn't modify it because it's seems
hard to do it whithout testing and fully understanding the context (for
example, why include/linux/drbd_genl.h is not part of uapi?).
Any thoughts?

I also fix the value of INET_DIAG_MAX. It's wrong since commit 8f840e47f190
which is only in net-next right now, thus I didn't make a separate patch.

Fixes: 8f840e47f190 ("sctp: add the sctp_diag.c file")

OK, so I somewhat miss a description of what will this do to the netlink
message so that I can judge whether the change is fine for the userspace
counterpart parsing these messages. AFAIU this changes the message format
by adding a QUOTA_NL_A_PAD field before each 64-bit field which needs an
alignment, am I guessing right? Thus when the userspace counterpart uses
genlmsg_parse() it should just silently ignore these attributes if I read
the documentation right. Did I understand this correctly?

Ok, I confused attribute and policy type there for a sec.
Anyways, 0 works just fine,
all our nested attribute enums are != 0,
because nla_parse skips type 0.

Yes, that's it.

Yet another example where doing things in a special unique way creates
headaches and pain for everyone... sigh.

I think you'll need to work with the drbd maintainer(s) to resolve
this and test the result.

Series applied, thanks.

All userspace components using netlink should always ignore attributes
they do not recognize in dumps.

This is one of the most basic principles of netlink.

Unfortunately we had problems using unspec, that's why an explicit new
padding attribute is added for each netlink attribute set.
