Florian Westphal b88d12e4a4 rtnetlink: bridge: use ext_ack instead of printk
We can now piggyback error strings to userspace via extended acks
rather than using printk.

Before:
bridge fdb add 01:02:03:04:05:06 dev br0 vlan 4095
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

After:
bridge fdb add 01:02:03:04:05:06 dev br0 vlan 4095
Error: invalid vlan id.

v3: drop 'RTM_' prefixes, suggested by David Ahern, they
are not useful, the add/del in bridge command line is enough.

Also reword error in response to malformed/bad vlan id attribute
size.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
