netlink: use "unsigned int" in nla_next()
->nla_len is unsigned entity (it's length after all) and u16, thus it can't overflow when being aligned into int/unsigned int. (nlmsg_next has the same code, but I didn't yet convince myself it is correct to do so). There is pointer arithmetic in this function and offset being unsigned is better: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 1/64 up/down: 5/-309 (-304) function old new delta nl80211_set_wiphy 1444 1449 +5 team_nl_cmd_options_set 997 995 -2 tcf_em_tree_validate 872 870 -2 switchdev_port_bridge_setlink 352 350 -2 switchdev_port_br_afspec 312 310 -2 rtm_to_fib_config 428 426 -2 qla4xxx_sysfs_ddb_set_param 2193 2191 -2 qla4xxx_iface_set_param 4470 4468 -2 ovs_nla_free_flow_actions 152 150 -2 output_userspace 518 516 -2 ... nl80211_set_reg 654 649 -5 validate_scan_freqs 148 142 -6 validate_linkmsg 288 282 -6 nl80211_parse_connkeys 489 483 -6 nlattr_set 231 224 -7 nf_tables_delsetelem 267 260 -7 do_setlink 3416 3408 -8 netlbl_cipsov4_add_std 1672 1659 -13 nl80211_parse_sched_scan 2902 2888 -14 nl80211_trigger_scan 1738 1720 -18 do_execute_actions 2821 2738 -83 Total: Before=154865355, After=154865051, chg -0.00% Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
