Is there any other place, other than bridge code, this functions are
suppored to be called from? If not, which I consider likely, it would
make more sense to me to:
- move netdev_for_each_lower_dev iterations directly to bridge code
- let the masters (bond, team, ..) implement ndo_bridge_*link and do
the traversing there (can be in a form of pre-prepared default
ndo callback (ndo_dflt_netdev_switch_port_bridge_*link)
