Subject: [PATCH 3.16 72/87] net/af_iucv: always register net_device notifier

3.16.75-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@...ux.ibm.com>

commit 06996c1d4088a0d5f3e7789d7f96b4653cc947cc upstream.

Even when running as VM guest (ie pr_iucv != NULL), af_iucv can still
open HiperTransport-based connections. For robust operation these
connections require the af_iucv_netdev_notifier, so register it
unconditionally.

Also handle any error that register_netdevice_notifier() returns.

Fixes: 9fbd87d41392 ("af_iucv: handle netdev events")
