rocker: remove support for legacy VLAN ndo ops
Remove support for legacy ndo ops .ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid/.ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid. Rocker will use bridge_setlink/dellink exclusively for VLAN add/del operations. The legacy ops are needed if using 8021q driver module to setup VLANs on the port. But an alternative exists in using bridge_setlink/delink to setup VLANs, which doesn't depend on 8021q module. So rocker will switch to the newer setlink/dellink ops. VLANs can added/delete from the port, regardless if port is bridged or not, using the bridge commands: bridge vlan [add|del] vid VID dev DEV self (Yes, I agree it's confusing to use the "bridge" command to set a VLAN on a non-bridged port). Using setlink/dellink over legacy ops let's us handle the stacked driver case automatically. It's built-in. setlink also pass additional flags (PVID, egress untagged) that aren't available with the legacy ops. Signed-off-by: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
