This series introduce the lockless version of netdev_notify_peers and then apply it to the relevant drivers.
In v1, a more appropriate name __netdev_notify_peers is used; netdev_notify_peers is converted to call the new helper. In v2, patch 3 calls the new helper where notify variable used to be set true.
