Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/3] net: rmnet: several code cleanup for rmnet module

This patchset is to cleanup rmnet module code.

1. The first patch is to add module alias
rmnet module can not be loaded automatically because there is no
alias name.

2. The second patch is to add extack error message code.
When rmnet netlink command fails, it doesn't print any error message.
So, users couldn't know the exact reason.
In order to tell the exact reason to the user, the extack error message
is used in this patch.

3. The third patch is to use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_ATOMIC.
In the sleepable context, GFP_KERNEL can be used.
So, in this patch, GFP_KERNEL is used instead of GFP_ATOMIC.

Change log:
 - v1->v2: change error message in the second patch.

Taehee Yoo (3):
  net: rmnet: add missing module alias
  net: rmnet: print error message when command fails
  net: rmnet: use GFP_KERNEL instead of GFP_ATOMIC
