Alexandra Winter 86818409f9 s390/qeth: Don't call dev_close/dev_open (DOWN/UP) 
[ Upstream commit 1cfef80d4c ]

dev_close() and dev_open() are issued to change the interface state to DOWN
or UP (dev->flags IFF_UP). When the netdev is set DOWN it loses e.g its
Ipv6 addresses and routes. We don't want this in cases of device recovery
(triggered by hardware or software) or when the qeth device is set
offline.

Setting a qeth device offline or online and device recovery actions call
netif_device_detach() and/or netif_device_attach(). That will reset or
set the LOWER_UP indication i.e. change the dev->state Bit
__LINK_STATE_PRESENT. That is enough to e.g. cause bond failovers, and
still preserves the interface settings that are handled by the network
stack.

Don't call dev_open() nor dev_close() from the qeth device driver. Let the
network stack handle this.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
