Hi All:

This series tries to synchronize the operstate with the admin state
which allows the lower virtio-net to propagate the link status to the
upper devices like macvlan.

This is done by toggling carrier during ndo_open/stop while doing
other necessary serialization about the carrier settings during probe.

While at it, also fix a race between probe and ndo_set_features as we
didn't initalize the guest offload setting under rtnl lock.

Changes since V5:

- Fix sevreal typos
- Include a new patch to synchronize probe with ndo_set_features

Changes since V4:

- do not update settings during ndo_open()
- do not try to canel config noticiation during probe() as core make
  sure the config notificaiton won't be triggered before probe is
  done.
- Tweak sevreal comments.

Changes since V3:

- when driver tries to enable config interrupt, check pending
  interrupt and execute the nofitication change callback if necessary
- do not unconditonally trigger the config space read
- do not set LINK_UP flag in ndo_open/close but depends on the
  notification change
- disable config change notification until ndo_open()
- read the link status under the rtnl_lock() to prevent a race with
  ndo_open()

Changes since V2:

- introduce config_driver_disabled and helpers
- schedule config change work unconditionally

Thanks
