This makes sense. All of linkinfo that is present should be displayed. Both netns and ifindex are really unsigned values. Use __u32 and print_uint.
Ok.
Also why not convert numeric values to names?
The only case where the ifname can change is when a netns is deleted and the interface is put back in init_net. But at this stage, we don't know the new name. For the nsid, you're right, it will be better to display the netns name. If you agree, I will do this in a following patch, thus all places using nsid can be converted at the same time.
