#define NLA_PUT(skb, attrtype, attrlen, data) \
        do { \
                if (unlikely(nla_put(skb, attrtype, attrlen, data) < 0)) \
                        goto nla_put_failure; \
        } while(0)

#define NLA_PUT_STRING(skb, attrtype, value) \
        NLA_PUT(skb, attrtype, strlen(value) + 1, value)

so we can't get rid of the nla_put_failure tag and it also means your
ret values aren't quite right, we have to set ret = -1 before the
NLA_PUT_STRING()....
