It's better to send notifications to userspace by the events
in rtnetlink_event, instead of calling rtmsg_ifinfo directly.
This patcheset is to remove rtmsg_ifinfo called in bonding,
the notifications can be handled by NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER and
NETDEV_CHANGELOWERSTATE events in rtnetlink_event.
It could also fix some redundant notifications from bonding.
v1->v2:
- post to net-next.git instead of net.git, for it's more like an
improvement for bonding
Xin Long (3):
bonding: remove rtmsg_ifinfo called in bond_master_upper_dev_link
rtnetlink: bring NETDEV_CHANGELOWERSTATE event process back to
rtnetlink_event
bonding: remove rtmsg_ifinfo called after bond_lower_state_changed
