Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/3] lockless version of netdev_notify_peers

This series introduce the lockless version of netdev_notify_peers
and then apply it to the relevant drivers.

In v1, a more appropriate name __netdev_notify_peers is used;
netdev_notify_peers is converted to call the new helper.
In v2, patch 3 calls the new helper where notify variable used
to be set true.

Lijun Pan (3):
  net: core: introduce __netdev_notify_peers
  use __netdev_notify_peers in ibmvnic
  use __netdev_notify_peers in hyperv
