rtnetlink: Make per-netns RTNL dereference helpers to macro.
When CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL is off, rtnl_net_dereference() is the
static inline wrapper of rtnl_dereference() returning a plain (void *)
pointer to make sure net is always evaluated as requested in [0].
But, it makes sparse complain [1] when the pointer has __rcu annotation:
net/ipv4/devinet.c:674:47: sparse: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces)
net/ipv4/devinet.c:674:47: sparse: expected void *p
net/ipv4/devinet.c:674:47: sparse: got struct in_ifaddr [noderef] __rcu *
Also, if we evaluate net as (void *) in a macro, then the compiler
in turn fails to build due to -Werror=unused-value.
#define rtnl_net_dereference(net, p) \
({ \
(void *)net; \
rtnl_dereference(p); \
})
net/ipv4/devinet.c: In function ‘inet_rtm_deladdr’:
./include/linux/rtnetlink.h:154:17: error: statement with no effect [-Werror=unused-value]
154 | (void *)net; \
net/ipv4/devinet.c:674:21: note: in expansion of macro ‘rtnl_net_dereference’
674 | (ifa = rtnl_net_dereference(net, *ifap)) != NULL;
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let's go back to the original simplest macro.
Note that checkpatch complains about this approach, but it's one-shot and
less noisy than the other two.
WARNING: Argument 'net' is not used in function-like macro
