Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/7] net: don't abuse "default" case for unknown ioctl in dev_ifsioc()

The "switch (cmd)" block from dev_ifsioc() gained a bit too much
unnecessary manual handling of "cmd" in the "default" case, starting
with the private ioctls.

Clean that up by using the "ellipsis" gcc extension, adding separate
cases for the rest of the ioctls, and letting the default case only
return -EINVAL.
