Subject: v2 [PATCH 1/2] net-driver: Drivers don't set IFF_* flag

Diff from v1 to v2: split de4x5's patch from previews one, because
it is a little bit different to others.

---
Some hardware set promisc when they are requested to set IFF_ALLMULTI flag.
It's ok, but if drivers set IFF_PROMISC flag when they set promisc,
it will broken upper layer handle for promisc and allmulti.
In addition, drivers can use their own hardware programming to make it.
So do not allow drivers to set IFF_* flags.

This is a general driver fix, so I didn't split it to pieces and send
to specific driver maintainers.
