net/neighbor: Update neigh_dump_info for strict data checking
Update neigh_dump_info for strict data checking. If the flag is set, the dump request is expected to have an ndmsg struct as the header potentially followed by one or more attributes. Any data passed in the header or as an attribute is taken as a request to influence the data returned. Only values supported by the dump handler are allowed to be non-0 or set in the request. At the moment only the NDA_IFINDEX and NDA_MASTER attributes are supported. Existing code does not fail the dump if nlmsg_parse fails. That behavior is kept for non-strict checking.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
