From 13d68a16430312fc21990f48326366eb73891202 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Abeni Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2024 10:09:47 +0200 Subject: genetlink: extend info user-storage to match NL cb ctx This allows a more uniform implementation of non-dump and dump operations, and will be used later in the series to avoid some per-operation allocation. Additionally rename the NL_ASSERT_DUMP_CTX_FITS macro, to fit a more extended usage.
