After adding bridge as upper layer of bond/team, we usually clean up the IP address on bond/team and set it on bridge. When there is a failover, bond/team will not send gratuitous ARP since it has no IP address. Then the down layer(e.g. VM tap dev) of bridge will not able to receive this notification. Make bridge to be able to handle NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS notifier.
