Or expand lnk_t in the frame_data structure to a gint16 - it's preceded by a
gint64, and followed by a flag byte, which is followed by a pointer, so there
are at least 32 bits to hold the lnk_t and flags fields, so the frame_data
structure (of which there's one per packet) won't get any bigger if we expand
lnk_t.  (That's the critical field here - pkt_encap is an int, but it has to
fit in the lnk_t field.)
