Now when we change the attributes of bridge or br_port by netlink, a relevant netlink notification will be sent, but if we change them by ioctl or sysfs, no notification will be sent. We should ensure that whenever those attributes change internally or from sysfs/ioctl, that a netlink notification is sent out to listeners. Also, NetworkManager will use this in the future to listen for out-of-band bridge master attribute updates and incorporate them into the runtime configuration. This patch is used for br_sysfs_br. and we also need to remove some rtnl_trylock in old functions so that we can call it in a common one. For group_addr_store, we cannot make it use store_bridge_parm, because it's not a string-to-long convert, we will add notification on it individually.
