It would be even better to mention it in the kernel documentation, since iproute2 is fairly standard now. I'm really not enough of a kernel hacker to change it, but the current Configure.help entry for CONFIG_NETLINK suggests that it is useful only for relatively obscure applications.
You need to say Y here to use the tools in the iproute2 package (<ftp://ftp.inr.ac.ru>).
And is CONFIG_RTNETLINK also necessary for ip?
