The syntax is not valid so this doesn't pass the schema check and
presumably hasn't been tested. Please validate YNL .yaml additions e.g.
./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py \
--spec Documentation/netlink/specs/tc.yaml \
--list-ops
...
jsonschema.exceptions.ValidationError: Additional properties are not allowed ('entries' was unexpected)

Please use dashes in member names, e.g. "delay-c", to follow YNL

This is not valid syntax. Enumerations and sets of flags need to be
defined separately. For example, look at the definition of tc-cls-flags
and its usage.
BUT step_packets is defined as a boolean in the implementation so could
be implemented as a boolean flag in the API. If it needs to be
extensible in future then it should be declared as an enum in uAPI and
defined in this spec as an enum. Either way, the parsing and policy in
patch 2 should be made more robust.

Not valid syntax. Use a boolean flag or define an enum.

Not valid syntax. Type should probably match implementation, unless you
want to enumerate the valid values by definining an enum.
