Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/6] drop_monitor: Various improvements and cleanups

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@...lanox.com>

This patchset performs various improvements and cleanups in drop monitor
with no functional changes intended. There are no changes in these
patches relative to the RFC I sent two weeks ago [1].

A followup patchset will extend drop monitor with a packet alert mode in
which the dropped packet is notified to user space instead of just a
summary of recent drops. Subsequent patchsets will add the ability to
monitor hardware originated drops via drop monitor.

Ido Schimmel (6):
  drop_monitor: Use correct error code
  drop_monitor: Rename and document scope of mutex
  drop_monitor: Document scope of spinlock
  drop_monitor: Avoid multiple blank lines
  drop_monitor: Add extack support
  drop_monitor: Use pre_doit / post_doit hooks
