Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: mctp: use nlmsg_payload() for netlink message data extraction
Date: Tue, 20 May 2025 15:02:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250520-mctp-nlmsg-payload-v1-1-93dd0fed0548@codeconstruct.com.au> (raw)

Jakub suggests:

This refactors the additions to both mctp_dump_addrinfo(), and
mctp_rtm_getneigh() - two cases where we're calling nlh_data() on an
an incoming netlink message, without a prior nlmsg_parse().
