When IPv4 device configuration parameters are updated via netlink, the kernel currently only updates the value. This bypasses several post-modification actions that occur when these same parameters are updated via sysctl, such as flushing the routing cache or emitting RTM_NEWNETCONF notifications. This patch addresses the inconsistency by calling the devinet_conf_post_set() helper inside inet_set_link_af(). If a flush is required, we defer it until the netlink attribute parsing loop completes. This ensures consistent behavior and side-effects for devconf changes, regardless of whether they are initiated via sysctl or netlink.
