netlink: compare policy more accurately
The maxtype is really an integral part of the policy, and while we haven't gotten into a situation yet where this happens, it seems that some developer might eventually have two places pointing to identical policies, with different maxattr to exclude some attrs in one of the places. Even if not, it's really the right thing to compare both since the two data items fundamentally belong together. v2: - also do the proper comparison in get_policy_idx() Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
