I would rather have a different ioctl that returns the if_data
member of ifnet.  It is a much more useful item to return.

Privately, in my own sources, I have two ioctls:

#define SIOCGIFDATA _IOWR('i', xx, struct ifdatareq)
#define SIOCZIFDATA _IOWR('i', xx, struct ifdatareq)

where ifdatareq is:

struct ifdatareq {
         char ifdr_name[IFNAMSIZ];
         struct if_data ifdr_data;
};

The Z (zero) variants, resets the counters back to 0 after returning
the data.
