I am using NDA_FDB_EXT_ATTRS. NFEA_LOCKED is just the
flag as the other flags section is full wrt the normal flags, but maybe it
doesn't fit in that section?

I will just note that iproute2 support for parsing nested attributes
does not work, thus the BR_FDB_NOTIFY section (lines 150-165) are
obsolete with respect to iproute2 as it is now. I cannot rule out that
someone has some other tool that can handle this BR_FDB_NOTIFY, but I
could not make iproute2 as it stands handle nested attributes. And of
course there is no handling of NDA_FDB_EXT_ATTRS in iproute2 now.

Forgot that one. Shall do!
