Ok, did more deep analysis of code. Vincent, David: we should return 0
as done before 9516823051ce.

This is special case to return from print_linkinfo() earlier and match
only filter.ifindex and filter.up if given and not rest fields in @filter.

Then call print_selected_addrinfo() without calling print_link_stats()
in ipaddr_list_flush_or_save().

Later print_selected_addrinfo() calls print_addrinfo() that finally
matches filter.label using ifa_label_match_rta().

This still incorrect: we should not call fnmatch() with network device name.

Also ip-link(8) does not say anything that label could be used to
filter link output. Label is ip-address(8) specific. Therefore checking
filter.family == AF_PACKET looks incorrect. AF_PACKET is ip-link(8)
specific.

Checking against !filter.family (AF_UNSPEC) is incorrect too: user might
force address family at ip command line and we never get:

    ip -4 addr show label lo:1

So from the code:

    if (filter.label &&
       (!filter.family || filter.family == AF_PACKET) &&
        fnmatch(filter.label, RTA_DATA(tb[IFLA_IFNAME]), 0))
            return -1;

We should leave only filter.label check and return 0:

    if (filter.label)
            return 0;

This will ensure we exit from print_linkinfo() earlier, skip
print_link_stats() and push final filtering by label to
print_selected_addrinfo() and print_addrinfo().

And finally: this is regression and should be against iproute2, not -next.
