Pavel,

seems to be a smart solution :)

I am just afraid with the performances when the network resources are to 
be accessed in the fast path like a routing table (that seems not to be 
the case for tun and vlan). Shall we assume the fast path should always 
go to struct net and non critical path can go to net_generic ?
