Davide Caratti 1d0507f468 net: mptcp: convert netlink from small_ops to ops
in the current MPTCP control plane, all operations use a netlink
attribute of the same type "MPTCP_PM_ATTR". However, add/del/get/flush
operations only parse the first element in the message _ the one that
describes MPTCP endpoints (that was named MPTCP_PM_ATTR_ADDR and
mostly used in ADD_ADDR operations _ probably the similarity of "attr",
"addr" and "add" might cause some confusion to human readers).
Convert MPTCP from 'small_ops' to 'ops', thus allowing different attributes
for each single operation, hopefully makes all this clearer to human
readers.

- use a separate attribute set for add/del/get/flush address operation,
  binary compatible with the existing one, to store the endpoint address.
  MPTCP_PM_ENDPOINT_ADDR is added to the uAPI (with the same value as
  MPTCP_PM_ATTR_ADDR) for these operations.
- convert mptcp_pm_ops[] and add policy files accordingly.

this prepares MPTCP control plane to be described as YAML spec.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
