net: remove rtmsg_ifinfo used in bridge and bonding
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 and
bridge, the notifications can be handled by NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER
and NETDEV_CHANGELOWERSTATE events in rtnetlink_event.
It could also fix some redundant notifications from bonding and
bridge.
v1->v2:
- post to net-next.git instead of net.git, for it's more like an
improvement for bonding
v2->v3:
- add patch 1/4 to remove rtmsg_ifinfo called in add_del_if

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
