Subject: [RFC PATCH iproute v3 4/4] ip link: Config and display IFF_PROTO_DOWN flag.

From: Anuradha Karuppiah <anuradhak@...ulusnetworks.com>

This patch adds support to set and display the IFF_PROTO_DOWN flag. One
example user space application setting this flag is a multi-chassis LAG
application to handle split-brain situation on peer-link failure.

Example:
root@...-next:~# ip link set eth0 protodown on
root@...-next:~# ip link show eth0
3: eth0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,PROTO_DOWN> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fas
t state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:01:00:00:06:ee brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
root@...-next:~# ip link set eth0 protodown off
root@...-next:~# ip link show eth0
3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mo
de DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:01:00:00:06:ee brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
root@...-next:~#
