From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit e6ac075882b2afcdf2d5ab328ce4ab42a1eb9593 ] Like all other virtual devices (macvlan, vlan), the operstate of a macsec device should match the state of its lower device. This is done by calling netif_stacked_transfer_operstate from its netdevice notifier. We also need to call netif_stacked_transfer_operstate when a new macsec device is created, so that its operstate is set properly. This is only relevant when we try to bring the device up directly when we create it. Radu Rendec proposed a similar patch, inspired from the 802.1q driver, that included changing the administrative state of the macsec device, instead of just the operstate. This version is similar to what the macvlan driver does, and updates only the operstate.
