net: Add UNIX_DIAG_UID to Netlink UNIX socket diagnostics.
Please format your patch submission properly.
This Author: and Date: should not be here in the commit message.
The "net: Add UNIX_DIAG_UID to Netlink UNIX socket diagnostics." should
be exclusively in your Subject line.
And:
This adds the ability for Netlink to report a socket's UID along with the
other UNIX diagnostic information that is already available. This will
allow diagnostic tools greater insight into which users control which
socket.
To test this, do the following as a non-root user:
unshare -U -r bash
nc -l -U user.socket.$$ &
.. and verify from within that same session that Netlink UNIX socket
diagnostics report the socket's UID as 0. Also verify that Netlink UNIX
socket diagnostics report the socket's UID as the user's UID from an
unprivileged process in a different session. Verify the same from
a root process.

This is all unnecessarily indented.
I know what you did, you took something like "git show" output and
just posted it to the list here.
But that's not what you're supposed to do.
Thanks.
