Understood. Is there anything I can make next time to make that series
more digestable and easy to review ? I didn't want to split the netlink
part from the core part, as just the phy_link_topology alone doesn't
make much sense for now, but it that makes the lives of reviewers
easier I could submit these separately.

Maxime
