rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetric

Now we have a set of nested attributes:

  IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED)
    IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED)
      IFLA_VF_MAC
      IFLA_VF_VLAN
      IFLA_VF_TX_RATE

This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired.
Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state.

The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like
something to consider for 2.6.34.
