Ian Campbell ac33b999ca arp_notify: allow drivers to explicitly request a notification event. 
commit 06c4648d46 upstream.

Currently such notifications are only generated when the device comes up or the
address changes. However one use case for these notifications is to enable
faster network recovery after a virtual machine migration (by causing switches
to relearn their MAC tables). A migration appears to the network stack as a
temporary loss of carrier and therefore does not trigger either of the current
conditions. Rather than adding carrier up as a trigger (which can cause issues
when interfaces a flapping) simply add an interface which the driver can use
to explicitly trigger the notification.
