This stub now allows userspace to see IFLA_INFO_KIND for ovs master and
IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_KIND for slave.

I am puzzled why you don't implement full rtnl_link_operations support.

If all you want is to report which kind of driver you have I suspect
implementing ethtool_ops.get_drvinfo is a much better fit.

openvswitch does not need that at the moment (most probably it never
will). Creation and deletion is handled over separate genl channel.

That is maybe partly true but that would not be consistent with bond, team,
bridge masters and slaves which benefit ops->kind to expose the type
into userspace.

So instead of using the mechanism that is supported by most of the
network drivers in the tree you are instead relying on a mechanism
that only works for a handful of software defined network devices.

I really think exposing a kind at this point is lying to user space
as having a kind implies that the netlink messages behind "ip link add"
and "ip link del" work.

Further I have seen nothing in what you are proposing that addresses
that absolute horrible maintenance consequences of your patch.

As I said, I just want openvswitch to be similar in this with
bridge/bond/team. ops->kind is there, its exposed to userspace, I don't
see any harm adding one another code which benefits that.

Note that this also allows to see slave kind.

Proper -EOPNOTSUPP is returned. And is is the same as if !ops. The
behavior is not changed.

I don't understand what maintenance consequences you have on mind. Would
you please exmplain? Thanks.
