Yeah, now that I'm home (I'm away pretty much "away" during the workdays
of the week) I did take a quick look.

target/linux/gemini/config-4.14 and target/linux/gemini/config-4.19
both have
# CONFIG_PACKET is not set

I think these should be removed (so CONFIG_PACKET is enabled because
target/linux/generic/config-4.1X sets it to =y)? Because otherwise
other helpful tools like tcpdump won't work either.

I put together a patchset in my staging tree starting from 

https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/chunkeey.git;a=commit;h=620462e09afc40602110b82caeb2858903709567

Let me know if this works now with the ip tool.

Regards,
Christian
