This v2 includes (1) changes on the 'targets_found' report and (2) addition of support to report dump consistency. Due to the size limit of netlink messages, now NFC_EVENT_TARGETS_FOUND only informs that new targets were found in a specific device. The userspace must call NFC_CMD_GET_TARGET netlink command to get such list. In order to inform an eventual dump inconsistency to userspace, generation counters are being used internally. For each message to be sent in a dump, genl_dump_check_consistent() is called to check if the current message comes from a newer generation than previous messages. In that case, the message is flagged with NLM_F_DUMP_INTR. The function genl_dump_check_consistent() and the flag NLM_F_DUMP_INTR were added by Johannes Berg's patch, which was just sent to netdev and wireless kernel lists. As a reference, I added the Johannes's patch at the beggining of this patch series. That's the reason to flag this patch series as RFC.
