commit 56a49d7048703f5ffdb84d3a0ee034108fba6850 upstream.
This fix addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201071
Commit 5025f7f7d506 wrongly relied on __dev_change_flags to notify users of dev flag changes in the case when dev->rtnl_link_state = RTNL_LINK_INITIALIZED. Fix it by indicating flag changes explicitly to __dev_notify_flags.
