[PATCH net-next v5 02/22] netlink: introduce nla_put_bitfield32()

From: Michal Kubecek
Date: Mon Mar 25 2019 - 13:10:49 EST


Similar to other data types, this helper puts NLA_BITFIELD32 attribute into
a netlink message. It takes separate value and selector arguments, if there
is a struct nla_bitfield32 already, one can use nla_put().
