[PATCH] bridge: Make br_is_nd_neigh_msg() accept pointer to "const struct sk_buff"

[PATCH] bridge: Make br_is_nd_neigh_msg() accept pointer to "const struct sk_buff"

[Ted Chen]

The skb_buff struct in br_is_nd_neigh_msg() is never modified. Mark it as const.

Hi,
This should be targeted at net-next (subject should be PATCH net-next).
Also please try to keep commit message lines shorter, checkpatch flags
this one as over 75 characters. You should wait 24 hours before posting
v2 of the patch.

Other than that the patch is ok.

Cheers,
 Nik
