Subject: rtnetlink: allow to register ops without ops->setup set

So far, it is assumed that ops->setup is filled up. But there might be
case that ops might make sense even without ->setup. In that case,
forbid to newlink and dellink.

This allows to register simple rtnl link ops containing only ->kind.
That allows consistent way of passing device kind (either device-kind or
slave-kind) to userspace.

Subject: bridge: fdb dumping takes a filter device

Dumping a bridge fdb dumps every fdb entry
held. With this change we are going to filter
on selected bridge port.

Subject: bridge: netlink dump interface at par with brctl

Actually better than brctl showmacs because we can filter by bridge
port in the kernel.
The current bridge netlink interface doesnt scale when you have many
bridges each with large fdbs or even bridges with many bridge ports

And now for the science non-fiction novel you have all been
waiting for..

//lets see what bridge ports we have

From 5517750f058edd111bcabe5e116056cc63b1f39c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no>
Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2014 16:37:25 +0200
Subject: net: rtnetlink - make create_link take name_assign_type

This passes down NET_NAME_USER (or NET_NAME_ENUM) to alloc_netdev(),
for any device created over rtnetlink.

v9: restore reverse-christmas-tree order of local variables

Subject: rtnetlink: Drop unnecessary return value from ndo_dflt_fdb_del

This change cleans up ndo_dflt_fdb_del to drop the ENOTSUPP return value since
that isn't actually returned anywhere in the code.  As a result we are able to
drop a few lines by just defaulting this to -EINVAL.

Subject: rtnetlink: fix VF info size

Commit 1d8faf48c74b8 ("net/core: Add VF link state control") added new
attribute to IFLA_VF_INFO group in rtnl_fill_ifinfo but did not adjust size
of the allocated memory in if_nlmsg_size/rtnl_vfinfo_size. As the result, we
may trigger warnings in rtnl_getlink and similar functions when many VF
links are enabled, as the information does not fit into the allocated skb.
