FreeBSD.

This is not a Linux-specific header, it is included on all platforms.
As the comment at the top says:

/* Netlink protocol definitions.
 *
 * Netlink is a message framing format described in RFC 3549 and used heavily
 * in Linux to access the network stack.  Open vSwitch uses AF_NETLINK sockets
 * for this purpose on Linux.  But on all platforms, Open vSwitch uses Netlink
 * message framing internally for certain purposes.
 *
 * This header provides access to the Netlink message framing definitions
 * regardless of platform.  On Linux, it includes the proper headers directly;
 * on other platforms it directly defines the structures and macros itself.
