Add genetlink family bind()/unbind() callbacks when adding/removing multicast group to/from netlink client socket via setsockopt() or bind() syscall. They can be used to track if consumers of netlink multicast messages emerge or disappear. Thus, a client implementing callbacks, can now send events only when there are active consumers, preventing unnecessary work when none exist.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
