Manual page ip-link(8) states that both local and remote accept
IPADDR not PREFIX. Use get_addr() instead of get_prefix() to
parse local/remote endpoint address correctly.
Force corresponding address family instead of using preferred_family
to catch weired cases as shown below.
Before this patch it is possible to create tunnel with commands:
ip li add dev ip6gre2 type ip6gre local fe80::1/64 remote fe80::2/64
ip -4 li add dev ip6gre2 type ip6gre local 10.0.0.1/24 remote 10.0.0.2/24

It is fully legal to submit zero (INADDR_ANY/IN6ADDR_ANY_INIT)
value for local and/or remote endpoints for all tunnel drivers:
no need additionally check this in userspace.
Note that all tunnel specific code already can pass zero address
to the kernel.

This is an update for 460c03f3f3 ("iplink: double the buffer size also in
iplink_get()"). After update, we will not need to double the buffer size
every time when VFs number increased.
With call like rtnl_talk(&rth, &req.n, NULL, 0), we can simply remove the
length parameter.
With call like rtnl_talk(&rth, nlh, nlh, sizeof(req), I add a new variable
answer to avoid overwrite data in nlh, because it may has more info after
nlh. also this will avoid nlh buffer not enough issue.
We need to free answer after using.

According to the IPv4 behavior of 'ip' it should be possible
to omit the arguments for local and remote address.
Without this patch omitting these parameters would lead to
uninitialized memory being interpreted as IPv6 addresses.

Use the new helper functions rta_getattr_u* instead of direct
cast of RTA_DATA(). Where RTA_DATA() is a structure, then remove
the unnecessary cast since RTA_DATA() is void *

This big patch was compiled by vimgrepping for memset calls and changing
to C99 initializer if applicable. One notable exception is the
initialization of union bpf_attr in tc/tc_bpf.c: changing it would break
for older gcc versions (at least <=3.4.6).
Calls to memset for struct rtattr pointer fields for parse_rtattr*()
were just dropped since they are not needed.
The changes here allowed the compiler to discover some unused variables,
so get rid of them, too.

There are only three users which require it to be reentrant, the rest is
fine without. Instead, provide a reentrant format_host_r() for users
which need it.

There have been several instances where response from kernel
has overrun the stack buffer from the caller. Avoid future problems
by passing a size argument.
Also drop the unused peer and group arguments to rtnl_talk.
