Hmm, that's weird - the warning is correct, but gcc on my system doesn't
complain. Even after explicitly setting -Wmaybe-uninitialized.

It is not unnecessary: There are several callers passing a callback to
nft_mnl_talk(). I didn't want to mess with all of them but still insert
netlink_echo_callback(). Hence I introduced nft_mnl_talk_cb() which
takes care of the callback passed by callers and ultimately calls the
echo callback.

Will do, thanks for the feedback!
