If the layout of the header is specified, in whole or in part, by a page on 
tcpdump.org's Web site, i.e. one of the linktypes/LINKTYPE_XXX.html files, and 
the part that's changing is in one of those files, it would be updated by 
providing an update to the file, e.g. as a pull request at

        https://github.com/the-tcpdump-group/tcpdump-htdocs

If the layout of the header is specified, in whole or in part, by a page that 
the provider of the specification maintains on some other Web site, and the 
part that's changing is in *that* page, it would be updating by updating that 
page.

If you can just update that page, that's the easiest way to update it.
