I checked that in this case Ethernet & Netlink frames will be mixed in the
pcap file, but netsniff-ng tries to identify all the frames as Ethernet,
and in this case frames is not wrapped with cooked header.

Right, so for that use case, it wouldn't work currently. I'm thinking that
in case of 'any' device *and* if there's at least one device present at the
time we bind the socket to any that would have netlink type, then we would
need to turn on cooked mode generally, so that in such environments Ethernet
and Netlink would have both cooked headers.

I think that would be useful to adapt the patch towards covering such use
cases as well since people might also like to correlate i.e. Netlink events
together with network packets. Could you please respin the patch towards
supporting this, too? Then I think, it should be ready to go in.

Thanks,
Daniel
