Later changes need to be able to refer to neighbour attributes

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 8a83a00b0735190384a348156837918271034144.

It causes regressions for S390 devices, because it does an
unconditional DST drop on SKBs for vlans and the QETH device
needs the neighbour entry hung off the DST for certain things
on transmit.

Arnd can't remember exactly why he even needed this change.

<title>macvlan: add FDB bridge ops and macvlan flags</title>

<id>df8ef8f3aaa6692970a436204c4429210addb23a</id>
<content type='text'>
This adds FDB bridge ops to the macvlan device passthru mode.
Additionally a flags field was added and a NOPROMISC bit to
allow users to use passthru mode without the driver calling
dev_set_promiscuity(). The flags field is a u16 placed in a
4 byte hole (consuming 2 bytes) of the macvlan_dev struct.

We want to do this so that the macvlan driver or stack
above the macvlan driver does not have to process every
packet. For the use case where we know all the MAC addresses
of the endstations above us this works well.

This patch is a result of Roopa Prabhu's work. Follow up
patches are needed for VEPA and VEB macvlan modes.

v2: Change from distinct nopromisc mode to a flags field to
    configure this. This avoids the tendency to add a new
    mode every time we need some slightly different behavior.
v3: fix error in dev_set_promiscuity and add change and get
    link attributes for flags.

Use eth_hw_addr_random() instead of calling random_ether_addr()
to set addr_assign_type correctly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM.

Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get
changed via .ndo_set_mac_address.

v2: adapt to renamed eth_hw_addr_random()

possible use after free in macvlan_handle_frame(), since
ip_check_defrag() uses pskb_may_pull() : skb header can be reallocated.
