Don't trust comments or documentation when working on Linux.
Code and git history are the sources of truth.

But you're right in a sense, the software devices which use this
callback today look like pretty fake users to allow out-of-tree
code to do things.

Will anyone who does not work on Cumulus Linus scream if we do this?

Subject: [PATCH] net: remove .ndo_change_proto_down

.ndo_change_proto_down was added seemingly to enable out-of-tree
implementations. Over 2.5yrs later we still have no real users
upstream. Stub this out for now, we can revert once real users
materialize. (rocker is a test vehicle, not a user.)

We need to drop the optimization on the sysfs side, because
unlike ndos priv_flags will be changed at runtime, so we'd
need READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE everywhere..
