will do.
I reviewed the comments and saw that the major comment is around the 
"Devlink buffers", which Jiri asked to replace with "Devlink msg".

The issue is that there is no easy way to modify one into the other 
without breaking things, so I am planning to provide a series on top 
which does:
1. Add devlink msg API
2. Move devlink reporter to use new API
3. Move existing reporter to use the new API
4. Get rid of the old API

thanks,
Eran
