[PATCH net v2 0/2] rtnetlink: add missing attributes in if_nlmsg_size

[Sabrina Dubroca]

Once again we have some attributes added by rtnl_fill_ifinfo() that
aren't counted in if_nlmsg_size().

v2: add missing nla_total_size in patch 1, spotted by Sergey Ryazanov
    patch 2 unchanged, keep Jiri Pirko's Reviewed-by

Sabrina Dubroca (2):
  rtnetlink: count IFLA_PARENT_DEV_{NAME,BUS_NAME} in if_nlmsg_size
  rtnetlink: count IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_KIND in if_nlmsg_size

[PATCH net v2 1/2] rtnetlink: count IFLA_PARENT_DEV_{NAME,BUS_NAME} in if_nlmsg_size

[Sabrina Dubroca]

Commit 00e77ed8e64d ("rtnetlink: add IFLA_PARENT_[DEV|DEV_BUS]_NAME")
added those attributes to rtnl_fill_ifinfo, but forgot to extend
if_nlmsg_size.

[PATCH net v2 2/2] rtnetlink: count IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_KIND in if_nlmsg_size

[Sabrina Dubroca]

rtnl_link_get_slave_info_data_size counts IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_DATA, but
rtnl_link_slave_info_fill adds both IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_DATA and
IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_KIND.
