Hmm, what iproute2 version do you use ???

commit 62a5e0668e2920b7f09896abd884753255712a46

    ip: Support IFLA_TXQLEN in ip link show command
    
    We currently use an expensive ioctl() to get device txqueuelen, while
    rtnetlink gave it to us for free. This patch speeds up ip link operation
    when many devices are registered.
