From: Alexander Aring <aahringo@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 30393181fdbc1608cc683b4ee99dcce05ffcc8c7 upstream. This patch adds handling to return -EINVAL for an unknown addr type. The current behaviour is to return 0 as successful but the size of an unknown addr type is not defined and should return an error like -EINVAL.
