Yeah, I noticed this after the review, and figured oh whatever. But this
would be better:

		int at = RDMA_NLDEV_SYS_ATTR_PRIVILEGED_QKEY_MODE;
		uint8_t pqkey_mode;

		pqkey_mode = mnl_attr_get_u8(tb[at]);
		print_color_on_off(PRINT_ANY, COLOR_NONE, "privileged-qkey",
				   "privileged-qkey %s ", pqkey_mode);
