[PATCH net-next v2 03/10] neighbour: Use nlmsg_payload in neigh_valid_get_req
Posted by Breno Leitao 8 months ago
Update neigh_valid_get_req function to utilize the new nlmsg_payload()
helper function.

This change improves code clarity and safety by ensuring that the
Netlink message payload is properly validated before accessing its data.
