Can you fix the userspace command and then we come back to what else is
needed? Right now, it is hard to tell what is a user space bug and what
is a kernel space bug.

For example:
$ devlink resource set pci/0000:03:00.0 path /kvd/linear size 10000
$ devlink resource show pci/0000:03:00.0
pci/0000:03:00.0:
  name kvd size 245760 size_valid true
  resources:
    name linear size 98304 occ 0
    name hash_double size 60416
    name hash_single size 87040

The set command did not fail, yet there is no size_new arg in the output
like there is for this change:

$ devlink resource set pci/0000:03:00.0 path /kvd/linear size 0
$ devlink resource show pci/0000:03:00.0
pci/0000:03:00.0:
  name kvd size 245760 size_valid true
  resources:
    name linear size 98304 size_new 0 occ 0
    name hash_double size 60416
    name hash_single size 87040
