    V5: fix two bugs pointed out by Thomas
        remove seq check for now, mark it as TODO
    
    V4: remove some useless #include
        some coding style fix
    
    V3: drop debugging printk's
        update selinux perm table as well
    
    V2: drop patch 1/2, export ifindex directly
        Redesign netlink attributes
        Improve netlink seq check
        Handle IPv6 addr as well
    
    This patch exports bridge multicast database via netlink
    message type RTM_GETMDB. Similar to fdb, but currently bridge-specific.
    We may need to support modify multicast database too (RTM_{ADD,DEL}MDB).
    
    (Thanks to Thomas for patient reviews)
