Subject: bridge: Assign rtnl_link_ops to bridge devices created via ioctl (v2)
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.39-400.9.0~303^2~56
X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a9588984a0c1252d0010045a9509d513a422b8ba;p=users%2Fjedix%2Flinux-maple.git

bridge: Assign rtnl_link_ops to bridge devices created via ioctl (v2)

[ Upstream commit 149ddd83a92b02c658d6c61f3276eb6500d585e8 ]

This ensures that bridges created with brctl(8) or ioctl(2) directly
also carry IFLA_LINKINFO when dumped over netlink. This also allows
to create a bridge with ioctl(2) and delete it with RTM_DELLINK.
