rtnetlink: enable IFLA_IF_NETNSID for RTM_DELLINK
- Backwards Compatibility: If userspace wants to determine whether RTM_DELLINK supports the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property they should first send an RTM_GETLINK request with IFLA_IF_NETNSID on lo. If either EACCESS is returned or the reply does not include IFLA_IF_NETNSID userspace should assume that IFLA_IF_NETNSID is not supported on this kernel. If the reply does contain an IFLA_IF_NETNSID property userspace can send an RTM_DELLINK with a IFLA_IF_NETNSID property. If they receive EOPNOTSUPP then the kernel does not support the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property with RTM_DELLINK. Userpace should then fallback to other means. - Security: Callers must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the target network namespace.
