Am I correct, that recommended approach would be to:

1. Modify iproute2 to support for example:

ip addr show dev hsr1 nodes {proxy} ?

2. Shall the currently exported:

/sys/kernel/debug/hsr/hsrX/node_table be left as it is (for legacy
usage) or shall it be removed and replaced with netlink and iproute2 ?
