dev: always advertise rx_flags changes via netlink
When flags IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI are changed, netlink messages are not
consistent. For example, if a multicast daemon is running (flag IFF_ALLMULTI
set in dev->flags but not dev->gflags, ie not exported to userspace) and then a
user sets it via netlink (flag IFF_ALLMULTI set in dev->flags and dev->gflags, ie
exported to userspace), no netlink message is sent.
Same for IFF_PROMISC and because dev->promiscuity is exported via
IFLA_PROMISCUITY, we may send a netlink message after each change of this
counter.
