Florent Fourcot 6f37c9f9df Revert "rtnetlink: return EINVAL when request cannot succeed"
This reverts commit b6177d3240

ip-link command is testing kernel capability by sending a RTM_NEWLINK
request, without any argument. It accepts everything in reply, except
EOPNOTSUPP and EINVAL (functions iplink_have_newlink / accept_msg)

So we must keep compatiblity here, invalid empty message should not
return EINVAL

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
