I really don't think this should be going via networking.
We can help review the netlink bits, if any, but otherwise we are far
outside of our comfort zone. 


IOW when you repost please drop the net-next designation and you'll
need to find someone else to merge these patches, or send a PR directly
to Linus himself during the merge window.

ANJALI> Thank you! However, looking at the MAINTAINERS file, drivers/connector/ is listed under NETWORKING DRIVERS. Hence sending on net-next is the most appropriate place?
