Can I rely on the presence of the $DEVPATH/driver symlink (e.g.
/sys/class/net/eth0/driver) to check if a network interface is a "real"
device insteaf of a VLAN or a bridge?

To distinguish I use a VLAN specific IOCTL (GET_VLAN_REALDEV_NAME_CMD).
If that IOCTL has no error, then it is a VLAN.

I don't know if there is a similar trick for bridges.

Thanks,
Ben
