Johannes Berg e8058a49e6 netlink: introduce type-checking attribute iteration
There are, especially with multi-attr arrays, many cases
of needing to iterate all attributes of a specific type
in a netlink message or a nested attribute. Add specific
macros to support that case.

Also convert many instances using this spatch:

Although I had to undo one bad change this made, and
I also adjusted some other code for whitespace and to
use direct variable initialization now.

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.
