Actually, the original plan was to use ifli_family to query something
or to direct a request to a specific interface on some netdevice.
I wanted to reserve IFLI_PROTINFO attribute to encapsulate information
private for specific family. It was not realized mostly because of absense
of such information.

Maybe, you will want to resurrect this.
