The iproute2 part allows the the actual use of the already existing quoted string parsing.
The kernel side fixes an oob read in em_nbyte and allows 'layer 0' in cmp and nbyte (and em_text whose existence surprised me given that I did not see it exposed via iproute2) to actually match layer 0 rather than being the same as specifying layer 1. I seem to have stumbled upon a layer of dust (says git-blame). Trying to match mac addresses I felt that the examples found online using the 'u32' filter were rather inconvenient, particularly given that there's the 'nbyte' filter around that could just memcmp the entire a byte sequence at once.
