Jakub Kicinski 0a055ec03d Merge branch 'netlink-specs-remove-phantom-structs'
Jakub Kicinski says:

====================
netlink: specs: remove phantom structs

rt-netlink and nl80211 have a few structs which may be helpful for Python
decoding of binary attrs, but which don't actually exist in the C uAPI.
This prevents us from using struct pointers for binary types in C.

We could support this situation better in the codegen, or add these
structs to uAPI. That said Johannes suggested we remove the WiFi
structs for now, and the rt-link ones are semi-broken.
Drop the struct definitions, for now, if someone has a need to use
such structs in Python (as opposed to them being defined for completeness)
we can revist.

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 reStructuredText 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.
