rtnetlink: enable alt_ifname for setlink/newlink
[ Upstream commit 5ea08b5286f66ee5ac0150668c92d1718e83e1ad ]
buffer called "ifname" given in function rtnl_dev_get
is always valid when called by setlink/newlink,
but contains only empty string when IFLA_IFNAME is not given. So
IFLA_ALT_IFNAME is always ignored
This patch fixes rtnl_dev_get function with a remove of ifname argument,
and move ifname copy in do_setlink when required.
It extends feature of commit 76c9ac0ee878,
"net: rtnetlink: add possibility to use alternative names as message
handle""
