At the moment it is quite hard to identify the network interface

created as virtual device, without any link to the IPA device.
The interface name ("rmnet_ipa%d") is the only indication that the
network interface belongs to IPA, but this is not very reliable.
Add SET_NETDEV_DEV() to associate the network interface with the
IPA parent device. This allows userspace services like ModemManager
to properly identify that this network interface is provided by IPA
and belongs to the modem.

Alex, can we get an ack?
Too late, but this looks good. Thank you for applying it.
I don't always spot messages not "To:" me. I still need to
improve my mail filtering. Sorry about that.
