Subject: [PATCH 5/5] xfrm: Restrict SA direction attribute to specific netlink message types

From: Antony Antony <antony.antony@...unet.com>

Reject the usage of the SA_DIR attribute in xfrm netlink messages when
it's not applicable. This ensures that SA_DIR is only accepted for
certain message types (NEWSA, UPDSA, and ALLOCSPI)
