All the io_alloc() implementation unconditionally allocated
new memory, thus leaking memory if called more then once.
Fix io_alloc() implementations not to allocate new memory
if not needed.
This happens for example in link_msg_parser() which first
calls rtnl_link_set_type():

This fixes the following coverity warning:
lib/route/link/vlan.c:148:23:warning – Result of 'calloc' is converted to a pointer of type 'struct vlan_map', which is incompatible with sizeof operand type 'struct ifla_vlan_qos_mapping'
This was not a real problem, because the types are effectively
the same.

1. Fix some places where unsigned value compared < 0
2. Fix obsolete %Z specifier to more portable %z
3. Some erroneous types substitution
4. nl_msec2str() - 64-bit msec is now properly used,
Only safe changes. I mean int <--> uint32_t and signed/unsigned fixes.
Some functinos require size_t argument instead of int, but changes of
signatures of that functions is terrible thing.
Also, I do not pretend for a full list of fixes.
Just to shut up clang -Wall -Wextra
One more thing. ifindex. I don't change that because changes will
be too big for simple fix.
Introduces a new API to handle address familiy specific link data such as
IFLA_PROTINFO. It provides entry hooks for parsing IFLA_PROTINFO attributes
and allows to include the parsed data when a link object is dumped.
In order for the interface to become more thread safe, the error
handling was revised to no longer depend on a static errno and
error string buffer.
This patch converts all error paths to return a libnl specific
error code which can be translated to a error message using
nl_geterror(int error). The functions nl_error() and
nl_get_errno() are therefore obsolete.
This change required various sets of function prototypes to be
changed in order to return an error code, the most prominent
are:
struct nl_cache *foo_alloc_cache(...);
changed to:
int foo_alloc_cache(..., struct nl_cache **);
struct nl_msg *foo_build_request(...);
changed to:
int foo_build_request(..., struct nl_msg **);
struct foo *foo_parse(...);
changed to:
int foo_parse(..., struct foo **);
This pretty much only leaves trivial allocation functions to
still return a pointer object which can still return NULL to
signal out of memory.
This change is a serious API and ABI breaker, sorry!
