For the general netlink interface, the deciding flag should be genl_ops.validate defined in 
each ops. The default validate flag is strict, while the developer can overwrite the flag 
with GENL_DONT_VALIDATE_STRICT to ease the validation. That is to say, safer code should 
enforce NL_VALIDATE_STRICT by not overwriting the validate flag.
