Patch

netlink: fix NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS in netlink_set_err()

Currently, ENOBUFS errors are reported to the socket via
netlink_set_err() even if NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS is set. However,
that should not happen. This fixes this problem and it changes the
prototype of netlink_set_err() to return the number of sockets whose
error has been set. This allows to know if any error has been set.
This return value is used in the next patch in these bugfix series.
