[PATCH] Add ip6_tunnel.h to headers_install

[PATCH] Add ip6_tunnel.h to headers_install

[Deepak Saxena]

The Mobile IPv6 package (http://www.mobile-ipv6.org/software/) needs
this header file to build the tunnelctl component. The header
already looks sanitized so is safe to export.

  is there some understood standard for naming header files related to
IPv6?  currently, there are header files that start with any one of
"ip6_", "ipv6_" and "ip6t_" (although the latter looks like it's
specifically for netfilter stuff).

  is there meant to be a distinction between prefixes of "ipv6_" and
"ip6_"?

I know this is really brain twister for folks to figure out
and remember, but could you at least CC: netdev@vger when
posting networking related patches, thank you.

I'll apply this patch, thanks.
