Does iproute going to have a more conservative policy than the kernel?
It looks pretty ridiculous.

iproute2 is released always immediately after every kernel
for very good reasons:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=145799701511959
https://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=145253104507275
https://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=144659766717141
[...]

Right now, Fedora 23 kernel is "4.4" and iproute is still "4.1".
A nonsense.

iproute2 should stay close to the its kernel version.
And this rule should be applied also to others kernel related utils/tools.
