    net: dsa: slave: Don't propagate flag changes on down slave interfaces · 6aab49c5

    The unbalance of master's promiscuity or allmulti will happen after ifdown
    and ifup a slave interface which is in a bridge.
    
    When we ifdown a slave interface , both the 'dsa_slave_close' and
    'dsa_slave_change_rx_flags' will clear the master's flags. The flags
    of master will be decrease twice.
    In the other hand, if we ifup the slave interface again, since the
    slave's flags were cleared the 'dsa_slave_open' won't set the master's
    flag, only 'dsa_slave_change_rx_flags' that triggered by 'br_add_if'
    will set the master's flags. The flags of master is increase once.
    
    Only propagating flag changes when a slave interface is up makes
    sure this does not happen. The 'vlan_dev_change_rx_flags' had the
    same problem and was fixed, and changes here follows that fix.
