We need to notify users we removed which filters, right?

As far as I know, most such use cases that listen on this are bypasses
that mirror kernel configs from user space ... but well, sure, I can add
a notification if people care. Would do this as a separate patch.

This is fundamental for libnl to update caches.

I see, makes sense then. Thanks!

I don't understand why it should be separated, since notification is
not a feature, we already have notifications in other paths.

Looking into this, I would probably make this a single notification that
denotes this 'wild-card' removal for that parent instead of calling
tfilter_notify() for each filter separately (which allocs skb, dumps it,
etc), qdisc del doesn't loop through it either, so probably fine this way.

Makes sense.

Thanks.
