Specifically it is invoking ipvlan_set_port_mode() instead of assigning port->mode directly in ipvlan_link_new(). That minimally needs to be documented in the commit log message. But I also wonder if for some reason in this conect the direct assignment happens to be fine. That's pretty much why you should explain things.
