This series add support for the libdir parameter in iproute2 configure
script. The idea is to make use of the fact that packaging systems may
assume that 'configure' comes from autotools allowing a syntax similar
to the autotools one, and using it to tell iproute2 where the distro
expects to find its lib files.

Patches 1-2 fix a parsing issue on current configure options, that may
trigger an endless loop when no value is provided with some options;

Patch 3 fixes a parsing issue bailing out when more than one value is
provided for a single option;

Patch 4 simplifies options parsing, moving semantic checks out of the
while loop processing options;

Patch 5 introduces support for the --opt=value style on current options,
for uniformity;

Patch 6 adds the --prefix option, that may be used by some packaging
systems when calling the configure script;

Patch 7 finally adds the --libdir option, and also drops the static
LIBDIR var from the Makefile.
applied to net-next. Thanks for working on this.
