Hah, right, I just focused on not breaking kernel UAPI and didn't check
this. I'll move it.

That's something that comes from kernel headers changes, now
commit f3a2181e16f1 ("netfilter: nf_tables: Support for sets with
multiple ranged fields"), this hunk:

diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_tables.h b/include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_tables.h

I didn't include those in userspace patches, following e.g. current
iproute2 practice. Let me know if I should actually submit that as
separate change -- I thought it would be more practical for you to sync
headers as needed.
