This patch series comes out of a comment in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1125755
that pointed out that sioctl(SIOCBRDELBR) won't delete a bridge
interface if it is IFF_UP, but the netlink RTM_DELLINK message doesn't
care - it will delete it anyway. In these patches we switch to using
RTM_DELLINK to avoid failures caused by a bridge interface that is
IFF_UP.

util: replace body of virNetDevMacVLanDelete() with
virNetlinkDelLink()
util: use netlink to delete bridge devices
