vlan: Correctly propagate promisc|allmulti flags in notifier.

Browse Source 
Currently vlan notifier handler will try to update all vlans
for a device when that device comes up.  A problem occurs,
however, when the vlan device was set to promiscuous, but not
by the user (ex: a bridge).  In that case, dev->gflags are
not updated.  What results is that the lower device ends
up with an extra promiscuity count.  Here are the
backtraces that prove this:
[62852.052179]  [<ffffffff814fe248>] __dev_set_promiscuity+0x38/0x1e0
[62852.052186]  [<ffffffff8160bcbb>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_bh+0x1b/0x40
[62852.052188]  [<ffffffff814fe4be>] ? dev_set_rx_mode+0x2e/0x40
[62852.052190]  [<ffffffff814fe694>] dev_set_promiscuity+0x24/0x50
[62852.052194]  [<ffffffffa0324795>] vlan_dev_open+0xd5/0x1f0 [8021q]
[62852.052196]  [<ffffffff814fe58f>] __dev_open+0xbf/0x140
[62852.052198]  [<ffffffff814fe88d>] __dev_change_flags+0x9d/0x170
[62852.052200]  [<ffffffff814fe989>] dev_change_flags+0x29/0x60

The above comes from the setting the vlan device to IFF_UP state.

[62852.053569]  [<ffffffff814fe248>] __dev_set_promiscuity+0x38/0x1e0

[62852.053654]  [<ffffffff814fe1a3>] __dev_notify_flags+0x33/0xa0
[62852.053656]  [<ffffffff814fe9b2>] dev_change_flags+0x52/0x60
[62852.053657]  [<ffffffff8150cd57>] do_setlink+0x397/0xa40

And this one comes from the notification code.  What we end
up with is a vlan with promiscuity count of 1 and and a physical
device with a promiscuity count of 2.  They should both have
a count 1.

To resolve this issue, vlan code can use dev_get_flags() api
which correctly masks promiscuity and allmulti flags.
