On the other hand, we currently have IFLA_IF_NETNSID for the link
operations. IFA_IF_NETNSID is more consistent with the existing
attribute. It may be confusing to authors of user space programs to
have attribute names doing the same thing constructed differently for
different calls (IFLA_IF_NETNSID and IFA_TARGET_NETNSID).

As for the patch set itself, it makes sense to me, whatever the
final attribute name is.

Thanks,

Jiri
