xu xin c67180efc5 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.

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.
