neigh notifications today carry pid 0 for nlmsg_pid in all cases. This patch fixes it to carry calling process pid when available. Applications (eg. quagga) rely on nlmsg_pid to ignore notifications generated by their own netlink operations. This patch follows the routing subsystem which already sets this correctly.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
