Thomas Weißschuh ffe357c868 nbd: automatically load module on genl access ... Add a module alias to nbd.ko that allows the generic netlink core to automatically load the module when netlink messages for nbd are received. This frees the user from manually having to load the module before using nbd functionality via netlink. If the system policy allows it this can even be used to load the nbd module from containers which would otherwise not have access to the necessary module files to do a normal "modprobe nbd". For example this avoids the following error when using nbd-client: $ nbd-client localhost 10809 /dev/nbd0 ... Error: Couldn't resolve the nbd netlink family, make sure the nbd module is loaded and your nbd driver supports the netlink interface.
