Subject: [PATCH 2/3][v7] netlink: have netlink per-protocol bind function return an error code.
Have the netlink per-protocol optional bind function return an int error code
rather than void to signal a failure.
This will enable netlink protocols to perform extra checks including
capabilities and permissions verifications when updating memberships in
multicast groups.
In netlink_bind() and netlink_setsockopt() the call to the per-protocol bind
function was moved above the multicast group update to prevent any access to
the multicast socket groups before checking with the per-protocol bind
function. This will enable the per-protocol bind function to be used to check
permissions which could be denied before making them available, and to avoid
the messy job of undoing the addition should the per-protocol bind function
fail.
The netfilter subsystem seems to be the only one currently using the
per-protocol bind function.

In particular, the audit subsystem (NETLINK_AUDIT protocol) could benefit by
being able to check specific capabilities for each multicast group before
granting membership to the requesting socket. Currently, all NETLINK_AUDIT
sockets must have the capability CAP_NET_ADMIN. No other capabilities are
required to join a multicast group. This capability is too broad allowing
access to this socket by many applications that must not have access to this
information. It is proposed to add capability CAP_AUDIT_READ to allow this
access while dropping the exessively broad capability CAP_NET_ADMIN.
There has also been some interest expressed by IETF ForCES folk.
v7: fix formatting and rework logic to flatten indentation.
v6: *really* fixed a logic error (missing braces) and a C99 error.
v3: added netlink_unbind() option and unwound netlink_insert().
