Subject: [PATCH] net netlink: Add new type NLA_BITFIELD32
Patch-mainline: v4.14-rc1
Git-commit: 64c83d837329531252a1a0f0dfdd4fd607e1d8e9
References: bsc#1109837 bsc#1152107 CVE-2019-16746

Generic bitflags attribute content sent to the kernel by user.
With this netlink attr type the user can either set or unset a
flag in the kernel.

The value is a bitmap that defines the bit values being set
The selector is a bitmask that defines which value bit is to be
considered.

A check is made to ensure the rules that a kernel subsystem always
conforms to bitflags the kernel already knows about. i.e
if the user tries to set a bit flag that is not understood then
the _it will be rejected_.

In the most basic form, the user specifies the attribute policy as:
[ATTR_GOO] = { .type = NLA_BITFIELD32, .validation_data = &myvalidflags },

where myvalidflags is the bit mask of the flags the kernel understands.

If the user _does not_ provide myvalidflags then the attribute will
also be rejected.

Examples:
value = 0x0, and selector = 0x1
implies we are selecting bit 1 and we want to set its value to 0.

value = 0x2, and selector = 0x2
implies we are selecting bit 2 and we want to set its value to 1.
