[PATCH net-next] rtnetlink: prepare for further rtnl lock pushdown/removal

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
Date: 2017-09-21 16:58:44

First patch adds a rudimentary vrf test case.

Remaining patches split large rtnl_fill_ifinfo into smaller chunks
to better see which parts

1. require rtnl
2. do not require it at all
3. rely on rtnl locking now but could be converted

add ASSERT_RTNL annotations/checks in a few spots as reminder for future
rtnl removal/pushdown patches.
