You are the one user of this new inline function.
Why don't you directly call to netlink_unicast() in your ibnl_unicast()
without messing with widely visible header file?
Since there is a non-blocking version of nlmsg_unicast(), the idea is
to make a blocking version available to others as well as maintain
consistency of existing code.
In such way, please provide patch series which will convert all other
users to this new call.
➜ linux-rdma git:(master) grep -rI netlink_unicast * | grep -I 0
kernel/audit.c: err = netlink_unicast(audit_sock, skb, audit_nlk_portid, 0);
kernel/audit.c: netlink_unicast(aunet->nlsk, skb, dest->portid, 0);
kernel/audit.c: netlink_unicast(aunet->nlsk , reply->skb, reply->portid, 0);
kernel/audit.c: return netlink_unicast(audit_sock, skb, audit_nlk_portid, 0);
samples/connector/cn_test.c: netlink_unicast(nls, skb, 0, 0);
Thanks
