Following patches also use this order instead of the previous one. For consistency, it could be good to keep the same order everywhere.
Yes, since a v6 will be necessary anyway, let's be consistent about the order of parameters. That helps reading the code. While there, I'd prefer to use 'portid' instead of 'pid'. I know rtnetlink.c uses both, but 'portid' is more explicit and is what af_netlink.c generally uses.
