.decode() accessing ynl.rsp_by_value would be cleaner, but I am
working on some notification fixes that might benefit from the map
being passed as a parameter. The netlink-raw families use a msg id
scheme that is neither unified nor directional. It's more like a mix
of both where req and rsp use different values but notifications reuse
the req values. I suspect that to fix that we'd need to introduce a
dict for ntf_by_value and then the parameter would be context
specific. OVS reuses req/rsp values for notifications as well, but it
uses a unified scheme, and that's mostly a problem for ynl-gen-c. We
could choose the cleaner approach just now and revisit it as part of
fixing notifications for netlink-raw?
