Subject: [patch v1, kernel version 3.2.1] rtnetlink workaround around the
skb buff size issue
From: Stefan Gula <steweg@...il.com>
Adding new rtnetlink ops and command for getting more information about
network devices, which are not able to fit inside predefined SKB structures
(e.g. PAGE_SIZE limit). DEVDUMP command allows to call specific device driver
code for complete handling this netlink message. Useful if devices needed to
list some addition dynamic structures like hlists and doesn't require to have
complete set of codes for it new PF families.
