netlink: fix NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS in netlink_set_err()

Currently, ENOBUFS errors are reported to the socket via netlink_set_err() even if NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS is set. However, that should not happen. This fixes this problem and it changes the prototype of netlink_set_err() to return the number of sockets that have set the NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS socket option. This return value is used in the next patch in these bugfix series. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
