Subject: [PATCH iproute2] bridge link: add option 'self'

From: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@...ulusnetworks.com>

Currently self is set internally only if hwmode is set.
This makes it necessary for the hw to have a mode.
There is no hwmode really required to go to hardware. So, introduce
self for anybody who wants to target hardware.
