Currently when FDB entries are added to or deleted from a VXLAN netdevice,
the VXLAN driver emits one notification, including the VXLAN-specific
attributes. The core however always sends a notification as well, a generic
one. Thus two notifications are unnecessarily sent for these operations. A
similar situation comes up with bridge driver, which also emits
notifications on its own:

 # ip link add name vx type vxlan id 1000 dstport 4789
 # bridge monitor fdb &
 [1] 1981693
 # bridge fdb add de:ad:be:ef:13:37 dev vx self dst 192.0.2.1
 de:ad:be:ef:13:37 dev vx dst 192.0.2.1 self permanent
 de:ad:be:ef:13:37 dev vx self permanent

In order to prevent this duplicity, shift the responsibility to send the
notification always to the drivers. Only where the default FDB add / del
operations are used does the core emit notifications. If fdb_add and
fdb_del are overridden, the driver should do that instead.

Drivers can use rtnl_fdb_notify(), exported in the previous patch, to get
the default notification behavior back. This function is made to notify on
success, which means several drivers do not need to change at all.
