NACK

This is invalid usecase for switchdev infra. Switchdev is there for
bridge offload purposes only.

For promiscuity changes, the infrastructure is already present in the
code. See __dev_notify_flags(). it calls:
call_netdevice_notifiers_info(NETDEV_CHANGE, &change_info.info)
and you can actually see the changed flag in ".flags_changed".

You just have to register netdev notifier block in your driver. Grep
for: register_netdevice_notifier
