How about "master_upper"? This is already widely used to refer to bond/team/bridge/other master soft devices. MASTER_UPPER_DEV_VLAN_FEATURES?I'm not sure if we should avoid using "master" now. Maybe just UPPER_DEV_VLAN_FEATURES?Why? We have "master_upper" to point exactly at this kind of device.
I mean try not use "master/slave" words. I'm OK to use UPPER_DEV_* prefix. I will update the name if there is a next version. Thanks Hangbin
