From c7bf5f9dc2f78ae8ebbfffc5f17becd0d9e6ba9e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2007 11:17:57 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NETFILTER] nfnetlink: netlink_run_queue() already checks for NLM_F_REQUEST Patrick has made use of netlink_run_queue() in nfnetlink while my patches have been waiting for net-2.6.22 to open. So this check for NLM_F_REQUEST can go as well. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
