Platform's add/remove operations accept a "network" argument.
Kernel requires that the host part (based on plen) is all zero.
For NetworkManager we are more resilient to user configuration.
Cleanup the input argument already before calling _nl_msg_new_route().
Note that we use the same "network" argument to construct a obj_id
instance and to find the route in the cache (do_add_addrroute()).
Without cleaning the host part, the added object cannot be found
and the add-route command seemingly fails.

The function is supposed to set *unamanged to NM_UNMANAGED's and indicate
whether NM_UNMANAGED was present in the return value.

For nl80211, we don't care about the interface name and only use it
when formatting error messages. For wext, an up-to-date interface name
should be obtained every time to minimize the chance of race
conditions when the interface is renamed.
We should implement all our private-getters with the very same pattern
(i.e. their type structure contains a field "_priv" and nm_assert()
with a GObject type check).
NM_LINUX_PLATFORM_GET_PRIVATE() was already doing all of that. Now just
use the _NM_GET_PRIVATE_VOID() macro which formally follows the
intended pattern.
Also, as time goes by it is less likely to encounter a user
where the kernel has no support. The most likely reason nowadays
is that the user booted with "ipv6.disabled=1".

- use gs_free attribute
- move printing the logging cache warning inside the place
where we actuall add a new item to the cache.
It's really a minor cleanup of stuff that come to my mind reviewing the
function.
We call nmp_utils_ethtool_get_driver_info() twice when receiving a
netlink message, but we don't need a clone of the string values.
Instead, expose a data structure that should be stack allocated
by the caller.
The ioctl APIs ethtool/mii require an interface ifname. That is inherrently
racy as interfaces can be renamed. This cannot be fixed, we can only
minimize the time between verifying the ifname and calling ioctl.
We already had problems with that when ethtool would access an interface
by name that didn't exists. See commit ab41c13b06 .
Checking for an existing interface only helps avoiding races when an interface
gets deleted. It does not help against renaming.
Go one step further, and instead of checking whether such an ifname
exists, try to get the ifname based on the ifindex immediately before
we need it.
This brings an additional overhead for each ethtool access.
Since function nmp_utils_open_sysctl() can avoid race condition, use it
in wifi_utils_is_wifi() to open sysfs and correctly check if it's a wifi
device.

Since commit 9fafb382db, we would
explicitly set libnl's socket buffer size to 4*getpagesize().
That is also the default of libnl itself. Additionally, we would
workaround too small buffers by increasing the buffer size up to 512K.
A too small buffer causes messages to be lost. Usually, that only
results in a cache-resync, which isn't too bad. Lost messages are however
a problem if the lost message was an ACK that we were waiting for.
However, it is rather unlikely to happen, because it's expected that
the buffer size gets adjusted already when the cache is filled initially,
before any other requests are pending.
Still, let's increase the default buffer size to 32K, hoping that this
initial value is already large enough to avoid the problem altogether.
Note that iproute2 also uses a buffer size of 32K [1] [2].
Alternatively, we could use MSG_PEEK like systemd does [3]. However,
that requires two syscalls per message.

We don't want to enable MSG_PEEK due to the overhead. But when we detect
that we just lost a message due to MSG_TRUNC, increase the buffer size and
retry.

- use _NM_GET_PRIVATE() and _NM_GET_PRIVATE_PTR() everywhere.
- reorder statements, to have GObject related functions (init, dispose,
constructed) at the bottom of each file and in a consistent order w.r.t.
each other.
- unify whitespaces in signal and properties declarations.
- use NM_GOBJECT_PROPERTIES_DEFINE() and _notify()
- drop unused signal slots in class structures
- drop unused header files for device factories
There is a "goto retry" in do_change_link_request(), at that point,
seq_result has the value -EOPNOTSUPP, instead of
WAIT_FOR_NL_RESPONSE_RESULT_UNKNOWN.

Trying to set a property on a device that does not exist is not something
necessarily wrong. Don't print error/warning messages.
