[iproute PATCH 0/2] ip-address: fix type list inconsistencies

[Phil Sutter]

The basic problem was differences in type list reported by help output
and stated in man page.

I decided to tackle the problem from both sides:
a) Make sure 'ip addr show' supports matching on all types reported.
b) Add missing types in either list.

This is still rather best-effort, actually things are quite messed up:
- Lists are not sorted, it's easy to miss something.
- The type list is duplicated four times as ip-link help and man page
  contain it, too.
- The kernel supports more types than listed here.
- We can't add but match on all types the kernel supports.

  ip-address: Support filtering by slave type, too
  ip-address: Align type list in help and man page

[iproute PATCH 1/2] ip-address: Support filtering by slave type, too

[Phil Sutter]

This patch allows to query all interfaces enslaved to a bridge or bond
using the following syntax:

| ip addr show type bridge_slave

Filtering has to be done in userspace since the kernel does not support
filtering on IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_KIND.

Functionality introduced in this patch is not fully complete since it
does not allow to match on type and slave type at the same time, but it
doesn't prevent implementing a dedicated slave_type match, either.

This adds missing entries on both sides until they are identical.

[iproute PATCH] ip-address: constify match_link_kind arg

[Phil Sutter]

Since the function won't ever change the data 'kind' is pointing at, it
can sanely be made const.
