Hi Aleksandr,

Part of this patch was to introduce a driver-dependent iflib function that
would allow drivers to tell iflib whether or not to flap the interface when
a vlan is registered or unregistered. I think this could be fixed for em(4)
by having it implement that function to either always return false (so
iflib doesn't do an init/stop), or maybe have it only do a reset when
vlanhwfilter is enabled; I'm going to take a look at doing that.
