Subject: [PATCH v1 net-next 2/7] neighbour: Move two validations from neigh_get() to neigh_valid_get_req().

We will remove RTNL for neigh_get() and run it under RCU instead.

neigh_get() returns -EINVAL in the following cases:

  * NDA_DST is not specified
  * Both ndm->ndm_ifindex and NTF_PROXY are not specified

These validations do not require RCU.

Let's move them to neigh_valid_get_req().
