I accidentally triggered this printk, which amused me for a few moments.
Given we're post 2.2, we could just -EACCES, but does anyone even care about Appletalk now ?
I figure it's better to leave sleeping dogs lie, and just update the message.

This results in code with less boiler plate that is a bit easier
to read.

Additionally stops us from using compatibility code in the sysctl
core, hastening the day when the compatibility code can be removed.

<title>net: Move all of the network sysctls without a namespace into init_net.</title>

This makes it clearer which sysctls are relative to your current network
namespace.

This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the
initial network namespace in other namespaces.

This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to
userspace and I can't honestly remember why we didn't do this for
sysctls right from the start.

Since commit 3e4d3af501 (mm: stack based kmap_atomic()) we dont have
to disable BH anymore while mapping skb frags.

We can remove kmap_skb_frag() / kunmap_skb_frag() helpers and use
kmap_atomic() / kunmap_atomic()

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using
the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so
that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence
of module.h from everywhere.

To ease skb-&gt;truesize sanitization, its better to be able to localize
all references to skb frags size.

Define accessors : skb_frag_size() to fetch frag size, and
skb_frag_size_{set|add|sub}() to manipulate it.

Make the case labels the same indent as the switch.

(git diff -w net/appletalk shows no difference)

Commit 60d9f461a20ba59219fdcdc30cbf8e3a4ad3f625 ("appletalk: remove
the BKL") added a dereference of "sk" before checking for NULL in
atalk_release().

Guard the code block completely, rather than partially, with the
NULL check.

The BKL removal in appletalk introduced a use-after-free problem,
where atalk_destroy_socket frees a sock, but we still release
the socket lock on it.

An easy fix is to take an extra reference on the sock and sock_put
it when returning from atalk_release.
