This is the 9th version of the ovpn patchset.

It re-introduces the RTNL Link ops and brings some changes
to the Netlink API as well.

Notably:
* removed CMD_DEV_NEW/DEL from netlink API
* re-added rtnl_link_ops.newlink implementation
* removed all 'value-start: 0' from ovpn.yaml
* added CMD_KEY_GET in Netlink API to retrieve non-sensible key data
* used key-get in notify attribute of key-swap-nft
* ensured that all netdev references are tracked
* added IFF_NO_QUEUE to device priv_flags
* set netdev devtype to ovpn_type
* added implementation of .ndo_uninit
* used workqueue to release socket (TCP detach may block)
* removed inclusion of linux/version.h in main.c
* removed commented inclusion of linux/rcupdate.h in main.c
* fixed file path in MAINTAINERS file
* properly sorted files in MAINTAINERS file

Please note that patches previously reviewed by Andrew Lunn have
retained the Reviewed-by tag as they have been simply rebased without
major modifications.
