Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 2/2] ipvlan: selects master_l3 device instead of depending on it

The L3 Master device is just a glue between the core networking code and
device drivers, so it should be selected automatically rather than
requiring to be enabled explicitly.

       This allows one to create virtual devices off of a main interface
       and packets will be delivered based on the dest L3 (IPv6/IPv4 addr)
