Hangbin Liu 5dc2d3996a ipvlan: call dev_change_flags when ipvlan mode is reset
After we change the ipvlan mode from l3 to l2, or vice versa, we only
reset IFF_NOARP flag, but don't flush the ARP table cache, which will
cause eth->h_dest to be equal to eth->h_source in ipvlan_xmit_mode_l2().
Then the message will not come out of host.

Here is the reproducer on local host:

ip link set eth1 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev eth1
ip link add link eth1 ipvlan1 type ipvlan mode l3

ip netns add net1
ip link set ipvlan1 netns net1
ip netns exec net1 ip link set ipvlan1 up
ip netns exec net1 ip addr add 192.168.2.1/24 dev ipvlan1

ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 via 192.168.1.2
ping 192.168.2.2 -c 2

ip netns exec net1 ip link set ipvlan1 type ipvlan mode l2
ping 192.168.2.2 -c 2

Add the same configuration on remote host. After we set the mode to l2,
we could find that the src/dst MAC addresses are the same on eth1:

21:26:06.648565 00:b7:13:ad:d3:05 > 00:b7:13:ad:d3:05, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 98: (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 58356, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
    192.168.2.1 > 192.168.2.2: ICMP echo request, id 22686, seq 1, length 64

Fix this by calling dev_change_flags(), which will call netdevice notifier
with flag change info.

v2:
a) As pointed out by Wang Cong, check return value for dev_change_flags() when
change dev flags.
b) As suggested by Stefano and Sabrina, move flags setting before l3mdev_ops.
So we don't need to redo ipvlan_{, un}register_nf_hook() again in err path.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
