It doesn't matter what "correct" compat nested attribute parsing
is or is not.  The fact is that RR and PRIO were using a certain
format, consistently, prior to commit #6.  This is what was
codified in userspace in the iproute2 sources and worked
correctly until #6.
So we remove nla_parsed_nested_compat() just to add it again under
a different name since netem is still going to use that piece of
code. That certainly makes sense. Fixing prio and rr in stable is
a one liner.
