To allow omitting some of the attributes in the final generated file.
Some of the definitions that seemingly belong to the spec
are defined in the ethtool.h. To minimize the amount of churn,
skip rendering a similar (and conflicting) definition from the spec.

Hm, is this mostly for enums and definitions? We have header: for this.
"header" should tell the codegen that the define is "foreign" and
should be skipped in uAPI, and in -user codegen we need an include.

Coincidentally

make -C tools/net/ynl/ -j

I don't see any existing usage (or maybe I'm looking at the wrong
place), but will spend some time reading the c-gen part. Worst case I
might refresh this thread with more questions.

Could be the magic in the makefiles that tries to include uAPI
headers directly that needs updating.
