Subject: IB/core: Add flow control to the portmapper netlink calls
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cea05eadded0d4eb59f7be6e1f1560eb6bfde2bf;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

IB/core: Add flow control to the portmapper netlink calls

During connection establishment with a large number of
connections, it is possible that the connection requests
might fail. Adding flow control prevents this failure.
Change ibnl_unicast to use blocking to enable flow control.
