IOW, you mean using virDomainNetDefPtr in openMacvtapTap is a libvirt
layering violation, and you'd prefer openMacvtapTap() w/ large number
of parameters?  I think it's impractical to not invent some structure to
pass the data...otherwise, I believe the worst case would be:

int openMacvtapTap(const char *tgifname,
		   const unsigned char *macaddress,
		   const char *linkdev,
		   int mode,
		   char **res_ifname,
		   int vnet_hdr,
		   int vf,
		   int port_type,
		   unsigned char mgrid,
		   unsigned typeid,
		   const unsigned char *instanceid,
		   const unsigned char *profileid,
		   const unsigned char *vmuuid)

But, any such structure will create some dependency.

What do you think?
