Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 0/4] bridge: support for vlan range in setlink/dellink

From: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@...ulusnetworks.com>

This series adds new flags in IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO to indicate
vlan range.

Will post corresponding iproute2 patches if these get accepted.

v1-> v2
    - changed patches to use a nested list attribute
    IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_LIST as suggested by scott feldman
    - dropped notification changes from the series. Will post them
    separately after this range message is accepted.

v2 -> v3
    - incorporated some review feedback
    - include patches to fill vlan ranges during getlink
    - Dropped IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_LIST. I think it may get
    confusing to userspace if we introduce yet another way to
    send lists. With getlink already sending nested
    IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO in IFLA_AF_SPEC, It seems better to
    use the existing format for lists and just use the flags from v2
    to mark vlan ranges
