[PATCH 4.4 16/20] bridge: netlink: call br_changelink() during br_dev_newlink()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ivan Vecera <cera@xxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit b6677449dff674cf5b81429b11d5c7f358852ef9 ]

Any bridge options specified during link creation (e.g. ip link add)
are ignored as br_dev_newlink() does not process them.
Use br_changelink() to do it.

Fixes: 133235161721 ("bridge: implement rtnl_link_ops->changelink")
