--- Comment #9 from Florian Weimer <fweimer at redhat dot com> ---
There are several other places which use < 0 instead of <= 0, so commit
fda389c8f0311dd5786be91a7b54b9f935fcafa1 may be incomplete.  I will also get
clarification if netlink responses from the kernel can get lost.

We might also simplify the netlink processing logic a bit because kernel
messages can no longer be spoofed due to this kernel fix:
