change all types representing number of labels to u8
to be consistent.

This also changes labels to u8 in the light weight
mpls_tunnel_encap structure. This is because the
light weight mpls iptunnel code shares some of the label
encoding functions like nla_get/put_labels with the af_mpls
code.

IMHO, it would be better to make rc_via_alen an int to avoid overflow which could cause false negatives in this check on the RTA_VIA attribute:

            if (cfg->rc_via_alen > MAX_VIA_ALEN)
                goto errout;

How about making max_labels a u8? That would make it even more consistent and avoids any problem of overflow in the number of labels.

yes, I did want to change max_labels to u8. will do in v2.

thanks,
