Subject: [PATCH] net: rtnetlink: Enslave device before bringing it up
Unlike with bridges, one can't add an interface to a bond and set it up
at the same time:
| # ip link set dummy0 down
| # ip link set dummy0 master bond0 up
| Error: Device can not be enslaved while up.
Of all drivers with ndo_add_slave callback, bond and team decline if
IFF_UP flag is set, vrf cycles the interface (i.e., sets it down and
immediately up again) and the others just don't care.
Support the common notion of setting the interface up after enslaving it
by sorting the operations accordingly.
