Subject: [PATCH] ipaddress: accept symbolic names
Organization: Addiva Elektronik
The function rtnl_addproto_a2n() was defined but never used.
Use it to allow for symbolic names, and fix the function signatures
so protocol value is consistently __u8.
Fixes: bdb8d8549ed9 ("ip: Support IP address protocol")
