From: David Decotigny <de...@googlers.com>
Expose the number of times the link has been going UP or DOWN, and
update the "carrier_changes" counter to be the sum of these two events.
While at it, also update the sysfs-class-net documentation to cover:
carrier_changes (3.15), count_link_up (4.16) and count_link_down (4.16)
Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <de...@googlers.com>
[Florian:
* rebase
* add documentation
* merge carrier_changes with up/down counters]
