Install a socket filter to reduce the pure netlink overhead.

Unfortunately the libmnl library does not provide a way to
set socket options that are of level other than SOL_NETLINK.

So we hack it by knowing some things about libmnl internals.

The knowledge of libmnl internals is unfortunate, but there
is currently no other way to do this.

You can use:

extern int mnl_socket_get_fd(const struct mnl_socket *nl);

Thus, you can invoke setsockopt directly ;-).

Thank you, I didn't notice that interface.

I'll check in the following.

--------------------
route_bench: Remove knowledge of libmnl internals, not needed.

Since mnl_socket_get_fd() exists, we can use that.

Thanks to Pablo.
