From a528c219df2e865e178c538c7178961dfed5a13c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Dichtel Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2013 12:02:44 +0200 Subject: dev: update __dev_notify_flags() to send rtnl msg This patch only prepares the next one, there is no functional change. Now, __dev_notify_flags() can also be used to notify flags changes via rtnetlink. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel Signed-off-by: David S.
