netlink: specs: support conditional operations
Page pool code is compiled conditionally, but the operations are part of the shared netlink family. We can handle this by reporting empty list of pools or -EOPNOTSUPP / -ENOSYS but the cleanest way seems to be removing the ops completely at compilation time. That way user can see that the page pool ops are not present using genetlink introspection. Same way they'd check if the kernel is "new enough" to support the ops. Extend the specs with the ability to specify the config condition under which op (and its policies, etc.) should be hidden.

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. 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.
