I am using sizeof(struct xxx) or __u32, etc in the code, I guess you are
ok with that.

This needs some fixes still.  First thing, ipv6_devconf is not
obtainable from user and has pointers in it which makes usage sloppy.
So I would suggest the following:

1) Remove "void *sysctl;" from ipv6_devconf, move it into
   inet6_dev ie. "void *cnf_sysctl;" update all code users.

2) Move "struct ipv6_devconf" into some linux/*.h ipv6 header
   usable by users.  Use an existing one if possible.  Then
   make sure net/if_inet6.h includes this thing.

3) Change "int" members of struct "ipv6_devconf" to "s32".
   It's anal and unnecessary on any current platform, but
   some day with 128-bit computers it might make some difference.
   :-)

Thanks.
