Subject: [PATCH net-next 06/11] tools: ynl-gen: inherit struct use info

From: Jakub Kicinski <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 7 Jun 2023 13:23:58 -0700

We only render parse and netlink generation helpers as needed,
to avoid generating dead code. Propagate the information from
first- and second-layer attribute sets onto all children.
Otherwise devlink won't work, it has a lot more levels of nesting.
