Series backports: Update for kernel 5.2 | expand

Commit Message

Hauke Mehrtens July 1, 2019, 9:49 p.m. UTC
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

This extends the backported netlink handling with strict parsing. the
struct gen_ops now supports the validate member and does the validation
inside the backport layer.

This is needed to use backports with kernel 5.2.

[Hauke: Remove nla_validate_nested()]
[Hauke: Support struct genl_ops on older kernel versions]
