[PATCH mptcp-next v7 2/6] netlink: specs: mptcp: add the subflow-retries attribute

[Anil Kaushik <anilkaushikwireless@gmail.com>]

It will be used by the in-kernel PM to set the number of SYN
retransmissions of a subflow re-created after an error, with the other
limits: add it to the set-limits and get-limits commands.

The uapi header and the generated files are updated with ynl-regen.

Notes:
    v7:
     - the doc gives the default value (netdev Sashiko)
    v6 (netdev Sashiko):
     - the policy checks the maximum value, 127 (MAX_TCP_SYNCNT)
     - the doc says the value works like TCP_SYNCNT
    v5:
     - new, split from the retry patch (Matthieu)
