I don't understand what you're trying to say. What is "this", 
what is "separate" from what?

Did I fall victim of the "if the cover letter is too long nobody
actually reads it" problem? Or am I simply too tired to parse?

iproute2 is welcome to use the protocol descriptions like any other
user space, but I'm intending to codegen kernel code based on the YAML:

>> On the kernel side the YAML spec can be used to generate:

>>  - policy tables for input attribute validation
>>  - operation tables

So how can it not be in the kernel tree?
