Subject: [PATCH iproute2 0/3] Improve iplink index, alias and name parameters handling

In this series I present following improvements:

  1) Check index is greather than zero and forbid
     specifying it multiple times in iplink_parse().
     Use 0 instead of -1 as special value in iplink_modify().

  2) Do not stop parameters processing after alias given.
     Check alias length does not exceed IFALIASZ - 1.

  3) Drop redundant name parameter length checks in
     iplink_vxcan.c and link_veth.c.

See individual patch description message for details.

Thanks,
Serhii
