4 days	net: add the driver-facing netdev_work scheduling API	Jakub Kicinski
	With an extra event mask we can easily extend the netdev work to also service driver-defined events. For advanced drivers this is probably not a perfect match, but it makes running deferred work easier in simple cases. Expose the netdev_work facility to drivers. Add helpers to schedule work and a dedicated ndo to perform the driver- -scheduled actions.

4 days	net: turn the rx_mode work into a generic netdev_work facility	Jakub Kicinski
	The rx_mode update runs from a workqueue: drivers have their ndo_set_rx_mode_async() callback executed by a single global work item under RTNL and ops lock. This is a useful pattern. Support multiple "events" that need to be serviced and make RX_MODE sync the first one. Call the events "core" because later on we will let drivers define and schedule their own.
