OK

you can skip the braces

you have if (filter.link_kind) twice, you can use a single if without the
else.

I need to skip interfaces which has not IFLA_LINKINFO attribute,
w/o "else if(...)" I get bridges with normal ether devices:
    
    bash# ip link show type bridge

    1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default 
        link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    2: enp0s25: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    5: br0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default 
        link/ether 6e:02:f9:17:7f:10 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

but expected result should be only bridges.
