====================
mptcp: convert Netlink code to use YAML spec

This series from Davide converts most of the MPTCP Netlink interface
(plus uAPI bits) to use sources generated by YNL using a YAML spec file.

This new YAML file is useful to validate the API and to generate a good
documentation page.

Patch 1 modifies YNL spec to support "uns-admin-perm" for genetlink
legacy.

Patch 2 adds support for validating exact length of netlink attrs.

Patch 3 converts Netlink structures from small_ops to ops to prepare the
switch to YAML.

Patch 4 adds the Netlink YAML spec for MPTCP.

Patch 5 adds and uses a new header file generated from the new YAML
spec.

Patch 6 renames some handlers to match the ones generated from the YAML
spec.

Patch 7 adds and uses Netlink policies automatically generated from the
YAML spec.
