IDK, vlan knows it's calling the bridge:
+ if ((vlan->flags ^ old_flags) & VLAN_FLAG_BRIDGE_BINDING &&
+ netif_is_bridge_master(vlan->real_dev)) {
bridge knows it's vlan calling:
+ if (is_vlan_dev(dev)) {
+ br_vlan_device_event(dev, event, ptr);
going thru the generic NETDEV notifier seems odd.
If this is just to avoid the dependency we can perhaps add a stub
like net/ipv4/udp_tunnel_stub.c ?
