net/smc: allow unprivileged users to read pnet table
The current flags of the SMC_PNET_GET command only allow privileged users to retrieve entries from the pnet table via netlink. The content of the pnet table may be useful for all users though, e.g., for debugging smc connection problems. This patch removes the GENL_ADMIN_PERM flag so that unprivileged users can read the pnet table. Signed-off-by: Hans Wippel <ndev@hwipl.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
