Re: [PATCHv2 wpan-tools 1/6] nl_extras: initial commit for extra nl bindings

[Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com>]

Hi Jiri Pirko,

I need a special header for my netlink application for introduce the
signed integer types, which are not in current release of libnl.

First I took the headr from [0].
Then I saw it's LGPL, to avoid any code license issues I reimplement it
now in my own header. It really looks the same, but putting my application
to LGPL is out of question.

Now I want to be sure that you don't see a copy&paste and remove the license.
Please let me know if this is okay for you.
