Benjamin Poirier 9b134b1694 bridge: Do not send empty IFLA_AF_SPEC attribute
After commit b6c02ef549 ("bridge: Netlink interface fix."),
br_fill_ifinfo() started to send an empty IFLA_AF_SPEC attribute when a
bridge vlan dump is requested but an interface does not have any vlans
configured.

iproute2 ignores such an empty attribute since commit b262a9becbcb
("bridge: Fix output with empty vlan lists") but older iproute2 versions as
well as other utilities have their output changed by the cited kernel
commit, resulting in failed test cases. Regardless, emitting an empty
attribute is pointless and inefficient.

Avoid this change by canceling the attribute if no AF_SPEC data was added.

Fixes: b6c02ef549 ("bridge: Netlink interface fix.")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
