Fair. So could this be done like IFLA_PHYS_SWITCH_ID and
IFLA_PHYS_PORT_ID. They can have variable size, max is MAX_PHYS_ITEM_ID_LEN

We can let user to pass arbitrary len up to 16 bytes. This has benefit in
fact that if in future this needs to be extended to say 32 bytes, it is
backward compatible. We just change the check in kernel.


Sure. Ive run out of time for now; but will work on a new version later.
