[ Upstream commit 4720f9707c783f642332dee3d56dccaefa850e42 ]

Strings from the kernel are guaranteed to be null terminated and
ynl_attr_validate() checks for this. But it doesn't check if the string
has a len of 0, which would cause problems when trying to access
data[len - 1]. Fix this by checking that len is positive.

[ Upstream commit 7e8b24e24ac46038e48c9a042e7d9b31855cbca5 ]

A definition with a "header" property is an "external" definition
for C code, as in it is defined already in another C header file.
Other languages will need the exact value but C codegen should
not recreate it. So don't output those definitions in the uAPI
header.

[ Upstream commit 45375814eb3f4245956c0c85092a4eee4441d167 ]

Fix a crash in the ethtool YNL implementation when Hardware Clock information
is not present in the response. This ensures graceful handling of devices or
drivers that do not provide this optional field. e.g.

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/net/tools/net/ynl/pyynl/./ethtool.py", line 438, in &lt;module&gt;
      main()
      ~~~~^^
    File "/net/tools/net/ynl/pyynl/./ethtool.py", line 341, in main
      print(f'PTP Hardware Clock: {tsinfo["phc-index"]}')
                                   ~~~~~~^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  KeyError: 'phc-index'

<content type='text'>
netlink reports which attribute was incorrect by sending back
an attribute offset. Offset points to the address of struct nlattr,
but to interpret the type we also need the nesting path.
Attribute IDs have different meaning in different nests
of the same message.

Correct the condition for "is the offset within current attribute".
ynl_attr_data_len() does not include the attribute header,
so the end offset was off by 4 bytes.

This means that we'd always skip over flags and empty nests.

The devmem tests, for example, issues an invalid request with
empty queue nests, resulting in the following error:

  YNL failed: Kernel error: missing attribute: .queues.ifindex

The message is incorrect, "queues" nest does not have an "ifindex"
attribute defined. With this fix we decend correctly into the nest:

  YNL failed: Kernel error: missing attribute: .queues.id

Li Li reports that casting away callback type may cause issues
for CFI. Let's generate a small wrapper for each callback,
to make sure compiler sees the anticipated types.
