Right, I think this is the correct fix.
Please do a proper patch submission for this.

I wondered why this issue does not show up with ipv6 tunnels
and it appears to be a bug :)

When a ipv6 tunnel interface is created, ip6_tnl_create2()
calls ip6_tnl_dev_init() which calls ip6_tnl_link_config().
ip6_tnl_link_config() sets dev->iflink.

Then register_netdev() overwrites this setting with
dev->iflink = dev->ifindex.

The output of the 'ip a' command looks like this:


9: ip6tnl0: <NOARP> mtu 1452 qdisc noop state DOWN
link/tunnel6 :: brd ::
11: ip6tunnel1: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1452 qdisc noop state DOWN
link/tunnel6 2001:470:1f00:ffff::191 peer 2001:470:1f00:ffff::189


When I change to avoid the overwriting of dev->iflink it looks
like this:

9: ip6tnl0@NONE: <NOARP> mtu 1452 qdisc noop state DOWN
link/tunnel6 :: brd ::
12: ip6tunnel1@eth0: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1452 qdisc noop state DOWN
link/tunnel6 2001:470:1f00:ffff::191 peer 2001:470:1f00:ffff::189

So I think dev->iflink should be set in the ndo_init() function
of the tunnel, then register_netdev() leaves dev->iflink alone.

Thoughts, comments?
