Subject: dev_ioctl: add missing NETDEV_CHANGE_TX_QUEUE_LEN event notification
Patch-mainline: v4.14-rc6
Git-commit: 823038ca030e9f8283518b1e6a5a6879edcbe057
References: bsc#1109837
When changing dev tx_queue_len via netlink or net-sysfs,
a NETDEV_CHANGE_TX_QUEUE_LEN event notification will be
called.
But dev_ioctl missed this event notification, which could
cause no userspace notification would be sent.
