net/core: print message for allmulticast
When the user sets or clears the IFF_ALLMULTI flag in the netdev, there are no log messages printed to the kernel log to indicate anything happened. This is inexplicably different from most other dev->flags changes, and could suprise the user. Typically this occurs from user-space when a user: ip link set eth0 allmulticast <on|off> However, other devices like bridge set allmulticast as well, and many other flows might trigger entry into allmulticast as well. The new message uses the standard netdev_info print and looks like: [ 413.246110] ixgbe 0000:17:00.0 eth0: entered allmulticast mode [ 415.977184] ixgbe 0000:17:00.0 eth0: left allmulticast mode Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
