genl_ops are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with genl_ops provided by <net/genetlink.h> work with
const genl_ops. So mark the non-const structs as const.

I don't think the title is still misleading. Other patches have used
"tipc:", I think you should use the same:
$ git log --oneline --no-merges -20 net/tipc
41c6d650f653 net: convert sock.sk_refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t
343eba69c696 net: tipc: Fix a sleep-in-atomic bug in tipc_msg_reverse
844cf763fba6 tipc: make macro tipc_wait_for_cond() smp safe
ec8a09fbbeff tipc: refactor function tipc_sk_recv_stream()
e9f8b10101c6 tipc: refactor function tipc_sk_recvmsg()
c1be7756284b tipc: close the connection if protocol messages contain errors
4e0df4951e9e tipc: improve error validations for sockets in CONNECTING state
42b531de17d2 tipc: Fix missing connection request handling
05ff8378975a tipc: fix socket flow control accounting error at tipc_recv_stream
3364d61c92ec tipc: fix socket flow control accounting error at tipc_send_stream
78302fd40576 tipc: check return value of nlmsg_new
fe52145f91fe netlink: pass extended ACK struct where available
fceb6435e852 netlink: pass extended ACK struct to parsing functions
66bc1e8d5d1d tipc: allow rdm/dgram socketpairs
70b03759e9ec tipc: add support for stream/seqpacket socketpairs
7efea60dcffc tipc: adjust the policy of holding subscription kref
139bb36f754a tipc: advance the time of deleting subscription from subscriber->subscrp_list
