Perhaps good time to extend the netlink validation for list
of values allowed?

But the netlink validator setups the extack properly. What's wrong with
that?

It is always confusing to see this. Reader might think this is necessary
as if the mem was not previuosly cleared. The general approach is to
rely on mem being zeroed, not sure why this is different.
