Subject: [PATCH net-next 23/26] tipc: Remove bearer flag indicating existence of broadcast address

From: Allan Stephens <Allan.Stephens@...driver.com>

Eliminates the flag in the TIPC bearer structure that indicates if
the bearer supports broadcasting, since the flag is always set to 1
and serves no useful purpose.
