s390/qeth: fix VLAN attribute in bridge_hostnotify udev event
Enabling sysfs attribute bridge_hostnotify triggers a series of udev events for the MAC addresses of all currently connected peers. In case no VLAN is set for a peer, the device reports the corresponding MAC addresses with VLAN ID 4096. This currently results in attribute VLAN=4096 for all non-VLAN interfaces in the initial series of events after host-notify is enabled. Instead, no VLAN attribute should be reported in the udev event for non-VLAN interfaces. Only the initial events face this issue. For dynamic changes that are reported later, the device uses a validity flag. This also changes the code so that it now sets the VLAN attribute for MAC addresses with VID 0. On Linux, no qeth interface will ever be registered with VID 0: Linux kernel registers VID 0 on all network interfaces initially, but qeth will drop .ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid for VID 0. Peers with other OSs could register MACs with VID 0.
