netlink: add NLA_MIN_LEN
Rather than using NLA_UNSPEC for this type of thing, use NLA_MIN_LEN so we can make NLA_UNSPEC be NLA_REJECT under certain conditions for future attributes. While at it, also use NLA_EXACT_LEN for the struct example. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
