Merge branch 'netlink-formatted-extacks'
Edward Cree says:
====================
netlink: formatted extacks
Currently, netlink extacks can only carry fixed string messages, which
is limiting when reporting failures in complex systems. This series
adds the ability to return printf-formatted messages, and uses it in
the sfc driver's TC offload code.
Formatted extack messages are limited in length to a fixed buffer size,
currently 80 characters. If the message exceeds this, the full message
will be logged (ratelimited) to the console and a truncated version
returned over netlink.
There is no change to the netlink uAPI; only internal kernel changes
are needed.
