I would suggest we eliminate support for old style protocols
now. We can do that by making the ptype registry in net/core/dev.c
fail if the thing being registered is old-style.
I'll code this up.
If we don't kill support for old-style protocols now, we can end up
being stuck supporting it throughout 2.6.x which I'd like to avoid.
I'll apply Stephen's patch here.
