This series makes the error reporting for the MPTCP_PM_CMD_ADD_ADDR netlink
command more specific, since there are multiple reasons the command could
fail.
Note that patch 2 adds a GENL_SET_ERR_MSG_FMT() macro to genetlink.h,
which is outside the MPTCP subsystem.
Patch 1 refactors in-kernel listening socket and endpoint creation to
simplify the second patch.
Patch 2 updates the error values returned by the in-kernel path manager
when it fails to create a local endpoint.
Paolo Abeni (2):
mptcp: deduplicate error paths on endpoint creation
mptcp: more detailed error reporting on endpoint creation
