Hey Jórg,

Thanks for the patch. This seems correct to me. From net/netlink/genetlink.c:

static const struct nla_policy ctrl_policy[CTRL_ATTR_MAX+1] = {
       [CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_ID]   = { .type = NLA_U16 },

So I'll apply it.

However, the reason it was like this is because I lifted most of that
file from iproute2:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/iproute2.git/tree/devlink/mnlg.c

I suspect the reason it's like this is because the original intention
was to use the same field for CTRL_ATTR_MCAST_GRP_ID, which eventually
got made into struct group_info instead.

Can you send this upstream too? You'll want to send it to
j...@mellanox.com, step...@networkplumber.org, and
net...@vger.kernel.org, and put me in the CC.

Thanks,
Jason
