net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP
Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN device down that is in promiscous mode: When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented a second time by the vlan_change_rx_flags() callback. The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags() is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP. Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the intended behaviour.
