The previous values belong to a different number space, "MPLS Pseudowire
Types Registry" in http://www.iana.org/assignments/pwe3-parameters, used
by LDP. The new values belong to the correct number space, "L2TPv3
Pseudowire Types" in http://www.iana.org/assignments/l2tp-parameters,
used by L2TPv3. Note that one is a 15-bit number while the other is a
16-bit number. So it's not really removing half of the values; even
though there are some numerical "matches" in the two registries, there
are differences (see for example 12 and 13, and some name changes). From
my knowledge the values not registered are also not used (and part of
the intention of the patch is that they are not misused); a fair
assumption is that it was a clerical error mis-assuming the two
protocols, LDP and L2TPv3, used the same space for "PW Types".
Could you please check-in if the patch looks OK?

Many thanks,

--Carlos.
