#1611221 — [PATCH v3] net: netfilter: Add nfnl_msg_type() helper function

Subject[PATCH v3] net: netfilter: Add nfnl_msg_type() helper function
Message-ID<tq2Dn-22K-17@gated-at.bofh.it>
To remove complexity of code the function is added in nfnetlink.h
to make code more clear and readable.
This is opencoded in a way that makes it error prone for future
netfilter netlink subsystems.

changes in v3
 -make the subject more clear.

This is not right. You have placed this new function definition inside
the CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING.

So this is only defined iff CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is set on.

I can find many more spots to be replaced via:

git grep NFNL_SUBSYS_ net/netfilter/

Patch attached.
