... virNetlinkNewLink helper which wraps the common libnl/netlink code to

unrelated to this patch...this kind of change should be a separate patch
somewhere at the beginning of the series...

I think ^this one should be part of the extra args, e.g. bridge doesn't use it

actually extra_args is a better name for the argument :)

Extra args should not be required, BridgeCreate doesn't make use of them. That
said, I think it's reasonable to make @ifname and @type mandatory and fail
whenever we don't get either of them:
if (!ifname && !type)
virReportError(...);

The order of the data in the msg payload doesn't matter, right? If that's true,
we could move everything related to @extra_args and *not* related to nested
containers right before actually calling into virNetlinkCommand. If the order
does actually matter, then you can disregard this comment.

this check would get a bit uglier though:
if ((STREQ(type, "macvtap") || STREQ(type, "macvlan")) &&
extra_args &&
extra_args->macvlan_mode &&
*extra_args->macvlan_mode > 0)

here you'd have:

The patch looks good, except for the few nitpicks I mentioned.
