Subject: [NETNS][IPV6]: Make ipv6_sysctl_register to return a value.
X-Git-Tag: Ubuntu-5.4-5.4.0-11.14~39880^2~826
X-Git-Url: https://git.proxmox.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=291480c09a9452a3d8852a9bfeb5ba2cbcfe662c;p=mirror_ubuntu-focal-kernel.git

[NETNS][IPV6]: Make ipv6_sysctl_register to return a value.

This patch makes the function ipv6_sysctl_register to return a
value. The af_inet6 init function is now able to handle an error and
catch it from the initialization of the sysctl.
