Subject: net: switchdev: Change notifier chain to be atomic
Patch-mainline: v4.13-rc1
Git-commit: ff5cf100110c6ea722d63dfa3d747ceb179e8da4
References: bsc#1112374

In order to use the switchdev notifier chain for FDB sync with the
device it has to be changed to atomic. The is done because the bridge
can learn new FDBs in atomic context.
