ahh. I swear there were patches to add it and I thought we accepted them.
Also just noticed that commit 675fc275a3a2d added 4-byte hole in there.
So I'm thinking we can fill the hole with
__u32 ifindex;
+ __u32 gpl_compatible:1;
__u64 netns_dev;
__u64 netns_ino;

and keep adding bit fields in there without breaking user space.
Such patch would need to go to bpf tree.
