net/ipv4: return the real errno instead of -EINVAL
For now, No matter what error pointer ip_neigh_for_gw() returns, ip_finish_output2() always return -EINVAL, which may mislead the upper users. For exemple, an application uses sendto to send an UDP packet, but when the neighbor table overflows, sendto() will get a value of -EINVAL, and it will cause users to waste a lot of time checking parameters for errors. Return the real errno instead of -EINVAL. Signed-off-by:xu xin <xu.xin16@zte.com.cn> Reviewed-by:
