BTW if anyone else wants to add more fields to the structure, now is
the time.
Well, you simply cannot do this.
Kernel will get garbage from old binaries,
and kernel will break user space if it tries
to get params into old structure.
So, please change SIOxxxTUNNEL values to support both interfaces
(or give up ioctl and use rtnetlink instead!)
Thanks.
