IP sends device configuration (see inet_fill_link_af) as an array
in the netlink information, but the indices in that array are not
exposed to userspace through any current santized header file.

It was available back in 2.6.32 (in /usr/include/linux/sysctl.h)
but was broken by:
  commit 02291680ffba92e5b5865bc0c5e7d1f3056b80ec

    net ipv4: Decouple ipv4 interface parameters from binary sysctl numbers

Eric was solving the sysctl problem but then the indices were re-exposed
by a later addition of devconf support for IPV4

    ipv4: AF_INET link address family

Putting them in /usr/include/linux/ip.h seemed the logical match
for the DEVCONF_ definitions for IPV6 in /usr/include/linux/ip6.h
