This patch prevents a TIPC configuration command requiring network
administrator privileges from triggering an skbuff underrun if it
is issued by a process lacking those privileges.  The revised error
handling code avoids the use of a potentially uninitialized global
variable by transforming the unauthorized command into a new command,
then following the standard command processing path to generate the
required error message.
