I see :S
I think I'll cut out the entire ETHTOOL_MSG_TUNNEL_INFO_GET suppo
Looks like we get a build failure if IPV4=n and ETHTOOL_NL=y because
the code unconditionally references the udp tunnel ops from the

so that devices can recognize tunneled packets. This is important
mostly for RX - devices which don't support CHECKSUM_COMPLETE can
report checksums of inner packets, and compute RSS over inner headers.
Some drivers also match the U
