Yes, this was done upstream, see 
https://github.com/thom311/libnl/commit/4dd5fdd0af2c0b7ffe1dbc49313f263dbb2e906f .


Try to upgrade to version 3.2.25, or backport this commit.

Possibly you want to backport all 4 commits that were merged with
https://github.com/thom311/libnl/commit/e21099908f6e22d869b2b8eeb1ffbcc2eff209e4 .



Does that solve your issue?
