arp_notify: unconditionally send gratuitous ARP for NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS.

arp_notify: unconditionally send gratuitous ARP for NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS.

commit d11327ad6695db8117c78d70611e71102ceec2ac upstream.

NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEER is an explicit request by the driver to send a link
notification while NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_CHANGEADDR generate link
notifications as a sort of side effect.

In the later cases the sysctl option is present because link
notification events can have undesired effects e.g. if the link is
flapping. I don't think this applies in the case of an explicit
request from a driver.

This patch makes NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEER unconditional, if preferred we
could add a new sysctl for this case which defaults to on.

This change causes Xen post-migration ARP notifications (which cause
switches to relearn their MAC tables etc) to be sent by default.
