The netlink route parsing functions end up setting a bunch of output variables from the rt attributes. This will get messy when the routes become more complex. So, split the rt parsing into two types: a lookup (returning route target data suitable for a route lookup, like when deleting a route) and a populate (setting fields of a struct mctp_route). In doing this, we need to separate the route allocation from mctp_route_add, so add some comments on the lifetime semantics for the latter.

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 reStructuredText 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.
