This comes from commit 10c9ead9f3c6bb24bddc9a96681f7d58e6623966
("rtnetlink: add new RTM_GETSTATS message to dump link stats")

Roopa, did you intentionally put this here unreferenced for the
purposes or documentation or something like that?

I went back and looked at all my submissions to remember why i had it.
I don't seem to have used it anywhere...but i had expressed an intent to use
it to parse filter attributes in incoming stats requests in my first few versions.

I possibly just forgot to drop it after i moved to a mask to filter incoming stats requests.
thanks for checking...

and thanks stephen for cleaning this up.
