 *                         if and only if the `validation_type' is set to

 *    NLA_EXACT_LEN_WARN   Deprecated, to preserve the numerical values
 *                         of the successors in kabi.

 * Meaning of validation union:
 *    NLA_BITFIELD32       This is a 32-bit bitmap/bitselector attribute and
 *                         `bitfield32_valid_ptr' points to u32 value of valid
 *                         flags.
 *    NLA_REJECT           This attribute is always rejected and `reject_message'
 *                         may point to a string to report as the error instead
 *                         of the generic one in extended ACK.
 *    NLA_NESTED           `nested_policy' to a nested policy to validate, must
 *                         also set `len' to the max attribute number. Use the
 *                         provided NLA_POLICY_NESTED() macro.
 *                         Note that nla_parse() will validate, but of course not
 *                         parse, the nested sub-policies.
 *    NLA_NESTED_ARRAY     `nested_policy' points to a nested policy to validate,
 *                         must also set `len' to the max attribute number. Use
 *                         the provided NLA_POLICY_NESTED_ARRAY() macro.
 *                         The difference to NLA_NESTED is the structure:
 *                         NLA_NESTED has the nested attributes directly inside
 *                         while an array has the nested attributes at another
 *                         level down and the attribute types directly in the
 *                         nesting don't matter.
 *    NLA_U8,
 *    NLA_U16,
 *    NLA_U32,
 *    NLA_U64,
 *    NLA_S8,
 *    NLA_S16,
 *    NLA_S32,
 *    NLA_S64              The `min' and `max' fields are used depending on the
 *                         validation_type field, if that is min/max/range then
 *                         the min, max or both are used (respectively) to check
 *                         the value of the integer attribute.
 *                         Note that in the interest of code simplicity and
 *                         struct size both limits are s16, so you cannot
 *                         enforce a range that doesn't fall within the range
 *                         of s16 - do that as usual in the code instead.
 *                         Use the NLA_POLICY_MIN(), NLA_POLICY_MAX() and
 *                         NLA_POLICY_RANGE() macros.
 *    NLA_U8,
 *    NLA_U16,
 *    NLA_U32,
 *    NLA_U64              If the validation_type field instead is set to
 *                         NLA_VALIDATE_RANGE_PTR, `range' must be a pointer
 *                         to a struct netlink_range_validation that indicates
 *                         the min/max values.
 *                         Use NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE().
 *    NLA_S8,
 *    NLA_S16,
 *    NLA_S32,
 *    NLA_S64              If the validation_type field instead is set to
 *                         NLA_VALIDATE_RANGE_PTR, `range_signed' must be a
 *                         pointer to a struct netlink_range_validation_signed
 *                         that indicates the min/max values.
 *                         Use NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE_SIGNED().
 *
 *    NLA_BINARY           If the validation type is like the ones for integers
 *                         above, then the min/max length (not value like for
 *                         integers) of the attribute is enforced.
 *
 *    All other            Unused - but note that it's a union
 *
 * Meaning of `validate' field, use via NLA_POLICY_VALIDATE_FN:
 *    NLA_BINARY           Validation function called for the attribute.
 *    All other            Unused - but note that it's a union
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * static const u32 myvalidflags = 0xff231023;
 *
 * static const struct nla_policy my_policy[ATTR_MAX+1] = {
 * 	[ATTR_FOO] = { .type = NLA_U16 },
