[CONNECTOR]: Use netlink_has_listeners() to avoind unnecessary allocations.
Return -ESRCH from cn_netlink_send() when there are not listeners, just as it could be done by netlink_broadcast(). Propagate netlink_broadcast() error back to the caller. Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Polyakov <johnpol@2ka.mipt.ru> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
