Trim the list to put a dent in the notification storm. v2 - rebased to top of net-next with IFLA_EVENT patch reverted - dropped removal NETDEV_CHANGEINFODATA since it is intentionally only to send a message to userspace - dropped NOTIFY_PEERS since Vlad's says it is needed for macvlans - add patches to remove NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER and NETDEV_CHANGE_TX_QUEUE_LEN from the event list ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
