There's no response for 'batch-begin' or 'batch-end'. We may need a
per op spec property to tell us if a request will be acknowledged.

Pablo, could we possibly start processing the ACK flags on those
messages? Maybe the existing user space doesn't set ACK so nobody
would notice?

I don't think the messages are otherwise marked as special from 
the "netlink layer" perspective.

It is possible to explore this. I don't have a use-case for NLM_F_ACK
and the begin marker message at this stage.

Thanks.
