I suppose we could. For it to cause a problem someone would have to create the netdev, fail to configure it, and then expect that the tunnel_egress_iface is updated appropriately. That seems like enough of an edge case that factoring out the options query code isn't worth it, especially given that all of this is going to go away once flow based tunneling hits. That said, I don't feel that strongly about it. I'd prefer to keep the patch simple, but if you'd like I'm happy to do the query. Ethan
