I take it you were using some gcc option about precedence of operations
being confusing between ! and <; including that gcc warning message in
your commit message can aid the discussion.

The indentation is wrong, too; the &ifla... of the second line should
line up just after nla_put( of the first line. That was botched in
December by commit 013c000 when the lines were reindented.
Actually, you've uncovered a bigger bug, but didn't fix it right.
Here, 'expr' is 'nla_put(...)'. But '!expr < 0' will never be true.
('!expr' is either 0 or 1, which is always non-negative). We either
meant 'expr < 0' or '!expr', but not both (or maybe we meant '!(expr <
0)', which is easier if written 'expr >= 0'). The bug has existed since
Stefan's commit 77e7c13 in November; and looking at the rest of that
commit, it _looks_ like we meant to use 'expr < 0' (that is, the correct
fix is to delete !), but I'd like confirmation from Stefan.
