[PATCH net-next v1 2/2] net/core: refactor promiscuous mode message

[Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com>]

The kernel stack can be more consistent by printing the IFF_PROMISC
aka promiscuous enable/disable messages with the standard netdev_info
message which can include bus and driver info as well as the device.

typical command usage from user space looks like:
ip link set eth0 promisc <on|off>

But lots of utilities such as bridge, tcpdump, etc put the interface into
promiscuous mode.

old message:
[  406.034418] device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
[  408.424703] device eth0 left promiscuous mode

new message:
[  406.034431] ice 0000:17:00.0 eth0: entered promiscuous mode
[  408.424715] ice 0000:17:00.0 eth0: left promiscuous mode

I'm unsure about this one because it's changing a long standard kernel
message to a slightly different format. I think the new way looks better
and has more information.
