In order to pass extack together with NETDEV_PRE_UP notifications, it's necessary to route the extack to __dev_open() from diverse (possibly indirect) callers. The last missing API is __dev_change_flags(). Therefore extend __dev_change_flags() with and extra extack argument and update the two existing users. Since the function declaration line is changed anyway, name the struct net_device argument to placate checkpatch.
