[ Upstream commit 545528d788556c724eeb5400757f828ef27782a8 ] Add a new delete request modifier called NLM_F_BULK which, when supported, would cause the request to delete multiple objects. The flag is a convenient way to signal that a multiple delete operation is requested which can be gradually added to different delete requests. In order to make sure older kernels will error out if the operation is not supported instead of doing something unintended we have to break a required condition when implementing support for this flag, f.e. for neighbors we will omit the mandatory mac address attribute. Initially it will be used to add flush with filtering support for bridge fdbs, but it also opens the door to add similar support to others.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
