For consideration, this patch seems to work for me.  I'm not sure
why we ever listed to these events.  I've only tested on a NIC that

But then if you are doing bonding or bridging of vlan's and you bring down the root network device, the upper layer is not
notified (for failover).

operstate should be enough for this I guess. Ben, what does iproute show
for the vlan device when the lower device is down?
