Hello:

This series was applied to netdev/net-next.git (refs/heads/master):

On Wed, 20 Jan 2021 16:44:09 +0100 you wrote:
There is currently one policy that covers all attributes for next hop
object management. Actual validation is then done in code, which makes it
unobvious which attributes are acceptable when, and indeed that everything
is rejected as necessary.

In this series, split rtm_nh_policy to several policies that cover various
aspects of the next hop object configuration, and instead of open-coding
the validation, defer to nlmsg_parse(). This should make extending the next
hop code simpler as well, which will be relevant in near future for
resilient hashing implementation.

Here is the summary with links:
