Subject: [RFC v2 0/6] strict netlink validation

This version gets us to where I wanted to be:

                         strict parsing
command    attribute     attribute   message
 old        old          -            -
 old        new          X            -
 new        *            X            X

Additionally, it does lots of cross-tree renames so that we can
redefine the "default" nla_parse() etc. to be strict now. Note
that I split the patches so we can use full build to validate I
actually caught everything, but since I haven't done that right
now it probably won't compile and thus needs more changes.
