[PATCH 3/5] net: Check for presence of IFLA_AF_SPEC

From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>
Date: 2014-11-26 12:42:31
Subsystem: emulex 10gbps nic be2, be3-r, lancer, skyhawk-r driver (be2net), intel ethernet drivers, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Ajit Khaparde, Sriharsha Basavapatna, Tony Nguyen, Przemek Kitszel, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

ndo_bridge_setlink() is currently only called on the slave if
IFLA_AF_SPEC is set but this is a very fragile assumption and may
change in the future.
