net: FIX ipv6_forward sysctl restart
Just returning -ERESTARTSYS without a signal pending is not good that will just leak it to userspace. We need return -ERESTARTNOINTR so we always restart and set signal pending so that we fall of the fast path of syscall return and setup the system call restart. So use restart_syscall() which does all of this for us. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
